Q. Can Sophos affect my WiFi connection?
Answered By: James Anthony Last Updated: Jan 31, 2019 Views: 71
Sophos 
will actively block networking connections (even Ethernet) until the Sophos Shield appears in the task bar (the bar on the top right of the screen).
If the Sophos Shield does not load after a minute, follow these steps;
- Launch Sophos from your Applications Folder
.
- Go to Sophos Anti-Virus > Preferences.
- Ensure On-Access Scanning is on
The Sophos Shield should then appear on your task bar (top right side of screen), and your internet will then be able to connect properly.
