If you are unable to migrate to the new Bitdefender VPN version, follow these step-by-step instructions to resolve the issues:
1. Check Your Internet Connection
- Ensure Stable Internet Connection: Verify that your internet connection is stable.
- Test Internet Speed: If possible, test your internet speed to ensure it is fast enough. There are many free tools available online that you can use to test your internet connection speed: Fast.com, Speedtest.net, Internethealthtest.org, Speedtest.xfinity.com, etc.
- Switch Networks (Mobile Users): If you are using an Android device, iPhone or iPad try switching between mobile data and Wi-Fi to see if the Bitdefender VPN migration issues persist.
2. Disable Other VPN Applications
- Disconnect Other VPNs: Make sure that no other VPN application is running. Having multiple VPNs active can cause conflicts.
3. Disable Firewall Temporarily
- Turn Off Firewall: Ensure that there are no active firewalls that could block Bitdefender VPN. This includes built-in firewalls like Windows Defender Firewall, third-party firewall software, or router’s firewall.
- Add Exceptions: If disabling the firewall temporarily is not an option, add an exception for Bitdefender VPN. If you’re unsure, consult your Firewall software user guide, contact the manufacturer or your Internet provider.
4. Disable Traffic Filtering Applications
- Check for Traffic Filtering Software: Check if you have any traffic filtering solutions installed, especially those designed for high-end gaming network cards (e.g., Killer Control Center, ASUS GameFirst, Detect Safe Browsing by Easy Solutions).
- Disable Filtering: Temporarily disable or uninstall these traffic filtering applications to see if Bitdefender VPN migration issues are solved.
5. Restart Your Device
- Reboot: Restart your computer or mobile device to clear any temporary issues or conflicts that might be affecting the VPN migration process.
