Firewall mode changed - Popup
« on: November 14, 2016, 09:16:29 AM »
Hi Guys,

I am getting "Firewall mode changed" popup frequently and automatically my wifi is getting disconnected.

Below is the error message:
"We detected the network <Wifi network> and automatically changed the firewall mode to Private/Low Risk Zone".

Kindly help me in this.

Thanks.

If the issue is just the popup, you can set it properly.
If you have a lot of different networks (or routers) and you're changing from one to another, the popup is normal (if you want to see them).
