I know this must be a VPN issue, but PIA's support is notoriously slow to non-existant, so hopefully someone here can tell me what I may have done wrong.

Firefox 118.0.2 Win 11 Pro x64 22H2 22621.2428

Thanks!

Please try with another browser. SSL errors are usually browser specific.
The cache of your existing browser may need cleaning & the command IPconfig /flushdns needs to be run.
We'll get a clearer picture after that is done.

A service that is not to your expectations does not deserve your subscription.

You were right in your first post. You can blame it on your VPN service.

I'm sure I just set one of the setting wrong when I re-installed, hopefully they will respond to their ticket, and let me know the likely culprit, otherwise, tomorrow morning I'll uninstall again and start from scratch. Thanks for reading.

You had it working before?
If so, your mode of connection might be set wrong. (TCP, UDP, WireGuard)

No pages wouldn't load before reinstall, so, yes, and I was using Wireguard, and still am, and it only gives TCP/UDP options while using OpenVPN, as opposed to Wireguard.

Use the batch script to reset TCP/IP protocol to its default state, hopefully that will help.

No improvement, unless the computer should need to be restarted, which I will do when I uninstall the VPN tomorrow. . .

Completely uninstalled the VPN, re-ran all the tips and tools from this thread, rebooted, and no better. . . let's see what a system restore will do *sigh* good thing I don't have much to do today.

System restore did nothing, re-installed VPN with less than ideal settings and all is well. . . something odd is broken with PIA, but at least it all works.
