BTW, initially the Spectrum connection worked, then it stopped working later in the day. I am not sure if the problem is with Spectrum’s internet settings, the change to a separate router and modem, the app or what. I went into copious detail so maybe people with more technical knowledge can figure this out. Then I decided to add the Linksys router to my trusted networks. I disconnected the “connect automatically when not on a trusted network” feature and was able to connect to the internet again. Since I still have ATT, I connected to the internet on my other iPad using ATT and went into the Avast app. So, I deleted the Avast VPN app on one iPad. I was able to connect the Linksys app after setting up my account on my laptop, but my internet connection became a problem. I ended up switching to a Linksys router. I could not get the Netgear app to work on my iPad and one suggestion was that VPN could interfere. Instead of an ATT modem-router combo, I bought my own router to go with the Spectrum modem to avoid rental fees. No problem using VPN app while I was an ATT subscriber. I have ATT internet but am switching to Spectrum.
