Hi, iandtudor

Please check if the date and time are synced with the device.  Adjust the timezone if needed.


Also, please check for conflicting apps any other VPN apps would be considered as conflict with the WiFi Protection. Uninstall the conflicting programs and make sure to delete the remnants.

Hope this helps! In case you need more help, please let us know immediately.

Hi, iandtudor

 

Trend Micro VPN Proxy One Pro is turned ON and enabled, its VPN connection keeps on disconnecting happens because of the following reason below:

  • The app may not be properly installed or configured.
  • There may be a conflicting third-party app on your device.
  • your Wi-Fi is unsupported
  • your connection is unstable
  • incomplete Wi-Fi setup

The following steps on the link below may also help you resolve the problem:
