I refuse to allow Norton to connect through the Windows Firewall since it restricts private networks, preventing internet access.

Yes, you can turn off Norton’s firewall in the settings and rely on Windows’ built-in protection. All the security tools you’ve tried let you adjust settings to suit your needs, but I haven’t used Norton recently.

It depends on the Norton version you're using—it should appear in the Norton settings. If not, you might need to uninstall it. But this seems unnecessary unless you want to explain your issue further; we could likely resolve it while keeping the Norton firewall active.

Remove Norton and install a reliable antivirus like Avast or AVG.

No reason for Nortons' mess, they should get a fresh one soon.

You have flexibility in selecting trusted sources and adjusting Norton firewall options. However, accessing your private network is required to obtain internet access, and Norton restricts direct interaction with the firewall, limiting your control over network settings.
