Apple iCloud Private Relay disconnects when VPN is launched

Hi Gdrenick,

Here's some information from the Manage iCloud Private Relay for specific websites, networks, or system settings resource you might find helpful as it explains how third party apps might affect Private Relay:

"If your Mac system settings prevent Private Relay from working

In System Settings on your Mac, you might see an alert that says, "Some of your system settings prevent Private Relay from working."

If you do, a third-party app — such as a VPN or internet filtering software — might have installed settings or extensions that are incompatible with Private Relay. For example, the third-party app might have installed a kernel extension or applied custom packet filter rules.

If you want to use Private Relay on your Mac, turn off or uninstall the third-party app. If you can't turn off or uninstall the app, you might not be able to use Private Relay on your Mac."

We hope this helps.

Take care.
