My Avast VPN works and connects just fine, even when my internet access is blocked by Avast Firewall. I read the article and although I may have misunderstood its theme, it looks like it's talking about issues with a VPN and I'm not having a VPN issue. However, if I disable the firewall, Avast is able to connect to the internet and everything looks and acts normal. It disappears immediately upon deactivation of the Avast Firewall service at that time my internet is perfect, as it used to be before I updated Avast Premium Security.īasically when all shields are active the only indication that something is wrong, is that Avast (and my entire PC) is unable to access the internet, and some features reflect this. This error only appears if Avast Firewall is active. Problems found: website( is online but isn't responding to connection attempts.'

No other program on my PC is able to access the internet, and Windows Network Diagnostics troubleshooting returns a very strange response to attempting to fix the internet connection No errors of any kind when trying to load any website using Firefox or Avast Secure Browser outside of 'check your internet connection' when attempting to load a page. No Avast warning or error other than when I click 'Menu' rather than my logon information on top I see 'The online content is unavailable Please, check your internet connection and try again.' Very ironic considering simply disabling the Avast Firewall will give me internet connection instantly. I would prefer to actually have the Avast firewall active, but if I can't use the internet unless it's inactive, there is little choice for me. There are no other options ticked under Settings>Protection>Firewall.

My firewall is set to private and my paid Avast VPN is turned off because most websites will not work if I am behind a VPN.Īll system rules are enabled except for remote desktop and steal mode from public networks. I was told that there are many settings in firewall that can cause this, but without an intimate knowledge of the program, I simply can't agree or disagree. Deactivating the firewall will give me my internet access back. Multiple restarts and shut downs have fixed the problem in the past, but this time that isn't working.ĭisabling all shields worked at first so I could even just get online to post in the forums but now I have isolated it to the firewall.
