knocked off internet while using express vpn
#1
Windows just updated my computer and since then when using Express VPN and using pirate bay I am kicked off the internet, as soon as I disable VPN and exit utorrent, my internet starts right back up. Anyone else have this problem and know a possible fix?

Give your router and PC some maintenance, switch the router off for approx 5 minutes and unplug it.  Then switch your PC off as well for a few minutes. This will usually do the trick of it's something minor. 

sometimes it's just a case of force closing the apps clearing and unwanted cache from the VPN, utorrent, and other running apps. 

Also any updated windows antivirus could also be the problem... Start with maintenance that's the easiest to do, then work your way through what could be causing it one by one.

It just means you're connected to a bad server that's all one that isn't currently working.  Connect to another working server and try again not all servers work well on ExpressVPN and there's been a few issues going on.

Sometimes that happens. What I've done is gone to the program to uninstal it, but then I'd select the "repair" option... Let that run and even reboot, and that usually corrects the issue. If not, i've un/reinstalled the program entirely.

I have noticed, too, that my ExpressVPM issues (if any) corrolate with system updates. Other programs too, but thats another story.
