I work from home and have been provided with an NEC Softphone on a laptop to connect with the office phone system. This uses a Cisco Anyconnect Secure Mobility Client but I am find more and the VPN connection drops out and I keep getting a message that says The Service Provider in your current location is restricting access to the internet. You need to log on with the service.
Why am I seeing this message please as my broadband is not restricted that I am aware of and I only get FTTC here anyway.

Thank you for this suggestion. I have changed the router setting and will see if more stable when in use tomorrow.
