Started my computer after a while of not using it, can not connect to the internet.

So I have a MSI laptop that has an issue of draining its battery while turned off. Decided to look in to this problem today.

Started the machine and could not connect to the internet. The time and date on the machine is way off.

Can not connect though ProtonVPN, tested diferent WiFis that my phone can connect to.

Any ideas what to do? Tried some simple guides and i am quite inexperienced.

I have found a solution, disabling protonVPN killswitch and reboot.

For SSL to work your computer time must be roughly the same as all the internet's time. Not exactly but within a few minutes.
