[Solved] No Internet connection

[taylorr]

I installed Resilo Sync on my new iPhone 7P. Well, actually it is an upgrade from BTSync. 

When launching the "Sync" app, it prompts me "No internet connection", even so when I open my IPSec VPN connection. 

BTW, I am in China. Is it because of the GFW issue?

Update: When sticking to the previous BTSync, it works.

In Resilio Sync we're using a recommended Apple's method of checking available network. Apparently it fails somewhere. We're investigating this.

Thanks for the reply. I think I have found the answer. 

In iOS 10, any app that would like to access network will have to be granted the network access right manually. 

Normally, there will be a pop up dialog but in some cases, as noticed by many other iOS apps, that dialog will be "silent"ed. In this case, please follow the following steps:

1. In Settings, Apps that use network, check if "Resilo Sync" is listed, if yes, turn the network access right on. 

2. If not, (and here is the tricky part): 

2.1 Disable any listed app network access and re-enable;

2.2 Remove Resilo Sync from backend running;

2.3 Re-launch Resilo Sync and in most cases, the dialog asking for network permit will appear. 

This is how I fix this problem and it is syncing now.

oh, that's what caused it. 
Actually, that pop up warning цas tested and works all right in the lab. Anyway, thank you for your solution!
