AVG Secure VPN, even being off, does not allow me from using wireless Android Auto. I had to uninstall it from my mobile. Any workaround?

After some update about 6 weeks ago, I started having problems connecting to Android Auto in wireless mode. I first thought it was a problem with Android Auto, but then found it was AVG Secure VPN. I stopped it, forced it to stop while driving, and nothing. It kept on not allowing the connection. In the end, I had to uninstall it and the problem was gone. But I need to have it on my mobile (I have a Samsung Galaxy S24+).

Any solution to this issue? Anyone else has had the same problem? Thanks a lot
