Which browser do you use?
Do you have Firewalls active?
With kind regards

I am also getting knocked off very very very often since I got my new computer and Windows 11.

Translation of "get knocked off" in Italian ...
It's the first time I ever saw a sub get knocked off.
Caspita, è la prima volta che vedo saltare un sottomarino

In Kiwi, knocked off translates to I've finished work, and I'm probably going to the pub for a Steiny.

There is a particularly vulgar use, I won't share here.

In England there is (or was) that vulgar use, plus to be assassinated by a mob.
It would never have occurred to me as an equivalent to being logged off or booted or whatever, hence my curiosity.
