The faro SDK fails to connect when using a VPN.

hi @dlange82 - can you provide some more details?

• how does the SDK fail
• what kind of VPN/VPN configs
• etc

thank you for the report, hopefully we can help more with some extra details

hi @eskirk, when using NordVPN, i get strict-origin-when-cross-origin and the Request Header has no Origin, only Referrer.

[dlange82]

@eskirk Any insights on this one?

@dlange82 can you share what kind of failure you are seeing?

this might be unavoidable when using Nord VPN with its default settings. after a bit of research it sounds like Nord's "Threat Protection" might be the culprit? you could try disabling that and seeing if the errors persist

[dlange82]

Status: (failed)net::ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED

So it seems to be either DNS filtering or threat protection in NordVPN. Can be closed.

Many thanks for the update @dlange82 🙏
