[QUOTE="IWT, post: 1820536, member: 83420"] @Simol This is a long shot - do you use a VPN at all? If you do, and if you also use anti-ad or anti-tracking extensions or apps, this can cause the problem. I discovered this, or rather the cause, by accident. I use Express VPN on occasion and reading its small print, it advised turning off/disabling these anti- products because conflicts could arise which could disrupt the normal working of mail/internet afterwards. Following this up, I read the small print on the app I use (AdGuard) and it also said that it might not be compatible with some VPNs. Since then, I've always disabled AdGuard before turning on the VPN. This may not happen with all VPNs - it doesn't with Private Internet Access, which I use occasionally. Long shot, as I said.
