I'm in China using a Windows 10 PC that is fully updated. My Avast is version 170901-2.
About two weeks ago, the VPN just stopped connecting reliably to anywhere. As of today, I can almost never get any Avast Secureline VPN Connection.
Up to that point, it had been great. Always worked. Now I am back to being forced to use, what were, other less dependable connections.
I can't find anything that has changed here other than the updates to Avast.
