No Internet Connection Error

You may receive this error with any of the SEO PowerSuite tools.

The first step - is to check your Internet connection (especially with Wi-Fi and public networks).

If you suspect other ('not obvious') reasons, below you will find a few easy-to-check troubleshooting steps to get you started:

1. Proxy Settings

Check if you have enabled the software to connect to the Internet via a proxy server instead of using the default Internet connection.

Head over to Preferences > Proxy Settings either disable the use of proxy or click the 'Check' button to verify whether the specified proxy address is valid:

2. VPN 

If you are using a VPN to mask your IP, please check whether you can access external resources with your new IP (check random websites in your browser)

Alternatively, disable your VPN temporarily. 

3. Antivirus/Anti-malware tools

In some cases, SEO PowerSuite apps may be treated with suspicion by your antivirus or Firewall. If that seems to be the case, check your antivirus/Firewall* settings and either disable it temporarily or make sure to:

- Remove the apps from Quarantine
- Restore the software's .exe files if needed
- Add the files below to the Exception list in your antivirus/Firewall settings:

javaw.exe
ranktracker.exe
seospyglass.exe
websiteauditor.exe
linkassistant.exe

*with Windows, check the Defender app as well.

4. Reinstall the software to the latest version
