Hello Everyone, I’ve been having an issue since yesterday or well several days now that’s confusing me alot. Basically its regarding my VPN with avast!, its really working well and I am enjoying it but i hae noticed my wifi symbol has changed. Whenever I connect to the VPN it changes to the ethernet symbol, this picture best illustrates this situation.
There’s nothing to be worried about.
That’s simply because avast creates a virtual Ethernet network in order to let your whole computer use the VPN; this way, you don’t have to configure the VPN in every single program, which may be annoying.
What Win10 build do you have please? Microsoft is releasing new Win10 updates pretty frequently and some of those builds have caused some unexpected behavior. We’ve reported issues to Microsoft and they are working on fixes.
This actually is affecting Cisco corporate VPNs as well (as I know myself from personal use). As long as nothing else seems out of place then probably nothing to worry about.
