Intermittent VPN Issues

Laptop and 3D printer are both on the same network at home. I have some privacy concerns on this network so I’m trying not to use the “exclude local network” option. However, sometimes I cannot access my 3D printer through the slicer interface (fluidd). Sometimes it works fine but most of the time I have to disable the VPN to see and control the printer from my laptop. I do have it set to exclude the slicer from the VPN connection but it still does not work. I have to turn the VPN off and reopen the slicer to get my printer to show up. Any help or suggestions with this would be much appreciated.

Can you plz xplain what this has to do with ddg?

Yes I have a VPN but I was wanting to use a VPN on my phone with the app tracking protection on as well. Currently they only allow their VPN with the app tracking on. So I did a 1 month thing to test to see if I want to switch totally. This is the only issue I have had too.

It’s ddg VPN. Built into the desktop browser. It’s blocking stuff even after adding it to the excluded apps.

I suggest reaching out to DDG Privacy Pro Customer Support at:
