Hi,
I restarted my HP laptop after this patch Tuesday and couldn’t connect to the internet. IT happened to be in the office that day - he ran through the normal issues and couldn’t find a problem. The machine is connected to the internet, but pages will not load and time out.
Called my companies tech help line, went through 2 hours of diagnostics…it’s ‘pinging’ but no internet.
the only solution they said was to reinstall windows10. (insert long string of bad words here.)
A week later I re-start my other laptop. Guess what happens? Just guess…
Another 2 hours on the phone with tech help. This time I had access to another machine so he was able to download a program and use the internet to try and find the problem.
Nope.
After an hour of hunting - he tries uninstalling Avast. BOOM!!! That’s the problem!
A week later I hesitantly re-start the main desktop. Guess what happens? NO INTERNET!!!
Are you freaking kidding me?! 2 weeks later and there still isn’t a fix for this?
I had to uninstall Avast Premier from my 3rd pc in 2 weeks to be able to use the internet.
No information about the conflict sent out to us paying customers either.
SO FRUSTRATED WITH THIS!!!
