Hi
Do you use a stand alone vpn?
This has happened a few times over the last year for me and each time it was either my vpn had not logged in automatically or avast had an update waiting to be installed (even though i have it set to auto update). as soon as i manually updated the firewall changed back to private.

Have the same problem, anybody figured out how to change a network from public to private, firewall rules are very different for each, and it's greatly affecting internet access.
