Just as a general thing, and may not be the case here (I don't use Windows): Some software's idea of "no internet connection" is that they can't connect to a handful of *particular* internet sites that they do a test against. It's a flawed method. And sometimes untrustworthy for other reasons... e.g. I've recently been debugging lots of unwanted internet traffic from some security video recorders - one continually does connection checks to various sites, including a Chinese cloud service and search engine, every few seconds. Even successful connections doesn't slow it down. Another only does that when you're looking at its network configuration page, but still goes looking for their cloud service all the time, even though that feature is disabled. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.119.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jun 4 14:43:51 UTC 2024 x86_64 (yes, this is the output from uname for this PC when I posted) Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
