    Hoping someone else has had this problem.

    When I've started PIA in Windows 7 Home, the network icon on the notification bar will show a red X. But about 5-10 seconds later, it goes away. I managed to watch the process happen inside network and sharing center and it showed my home network disconnected, then it suddenly refreshed and "access type" showed "Internet". However, the internet still didn't work so that's good that kill switch is working.

    I have DNS Client service set to automatic & started. Idk if that's what is making it refresh, any ideas?
