Hi. I have just installed Firefox as my default browser, but am subscribed to Sky Sport Now in New Zealand (www.skysportnow.co.nz) and when I try to start the application it says that this application will not work with a VPN. I use Nord VPN as my VPN, but even after stopping all Nord services, it stll says the same. I can log onto this site with Microsoft Edge no problems. Maybe I have to swap my default browser to Microsoft Edge??? Brian Coddington

Did you restart the computer after stopping the VPN services?

You could check Network Settings at the bottom of the first page of Settings if you still have a problem. You may need to select No Proxy and deselect Enable DNS over HTTPS. It is possible to create an exception to the latter if you prefer. You can create an exception for that domain in this preference in about:config. network.trr.builtin-excluded-domains
