In ControlUp for Desktops > Details the Wi-Fi Signal Timeline shows No Wifi. If I click into the device Under network it has wifi showing as connected. Is the wifi signal timeline not realtime?
What type of device are you using?
and is there any VPN active on the device?
Its for a Windows 11 24H2 laptop. There is a VPN active on the device.
