Summary

Voyager communicates with the Internet for a number of reasons including downloading TFRs and weather, airport diagrams and approach procedures and more.  Sometimes, overly aggressive settings on security products may block Voyager from communicating with the Internet even if other applications, such as Internet Explorer, can.  Unfortunately, each application from each vendor is different and changes frequently so we can do little more than point you to each vendors' Web site.

Symptoms

When Voyager begins, it gives an error saying that there was a problem accessing the Internet although you can communicate with the Internet using Internet Explorer or other software.
