Avast intenet security network profile
« on: January 14, 2013, 04:00:03 PM »
I installed trial version of avast internet security (7.0.1474). I was just wondering, why there is no wireless network profile in firewall settings. Should there be such profile?
I have pci card for my wireless connection in my computer, Realtek RTL8185. (see pictures below). I am using default firewall settings in AIS.

You want protection for wireless networks will have to pay for an additional product

Secure VPN has nothing to do with Hannu's question.

Yes, I have connected with wireless, and I have WPA2-PSK encryption.

It should show in the AIS Firewall when it is the active profile, at least.  I would have thought that any previously activated profile would remain in the interface even after connecting to a new access point or using an ethernet connection.  I've only connected to my home router thus far, but I'll try later.
