Intego - problems with internet connection

[jankkry]

Welcome everyone, this is my first post on this forum. I recently bought a MacStudio (MacOs Monterey 12.3.1) for graphics purposes, it's the first mac in my life, so I'm at the stage of learning this system. The first thing I did after booting up was to install an antivirus program - Intego. I followed the installation instructions, once it was done the program works, but something is blocking the connection to the Internet. Meaning the connection is established, the icon on the computer shows that it is connected to the network, the firewall is disabled, nevertheless using even a browser or updates is impossible. Does anyone perhaps have an idea where the problem lies, what did I do wrong, maybe I missed something?

You should have the Mac firewall on ALWAYS.
Do you have NetBarrier installed, if so you need to setup a profile.
In that profile you can Allow/Block sites from access.
