How to get past the issue of Brave refusing to connect?
Allow Brave to access the network in your firewall or antivirus settings.
If it is already listed as a program allowed to access the network, try removing it from the list and adding it again.
Hello @golfgame
Thank you for reaching out and we’re happy to assist you. Could you kindly try to disable shields to see if the issue persist?
Be waiting for your response!
I figured it out, the issue revolved around my Firewall. I am on a Mac. These are the changes I made to it. See the attached screenshot.
Thanks for the reply
