How to resolve App error IFE-1002 Disable VPN to continue?

Options

I just updated to a new iphone 15. I have not been able to get the app to work on the new phone and it previously worked on my iphone xr. I have deleted the app and reinstalled and restarted the phone. My VPN from Norton is off on my phone. Please advise.

    Hi & welcome!

    Please try restarting the modem on the account. If the app still does not launch, please try changing the password to reset the authentication credentials. Let us know how it goes.

    Do you have a different device you can test? Does it show the same error?

    Thank you for checking. The error message you are receiving is due to the app thinking that there is a VPN or proxy server being used. Are you using any form of a VPN?

    I have checked my phone and the Norton VPN is off. I also went into my netgear orbi wifi to see if there was something there. I can't figure this out. I also tried to add it to my husbands iphone SE and it got the same message. Norton has a VPN but I have turned it off. I also went into my iphone settings to look at that. I truly cannot figure this out.
