Onedrive access via a VPN

Why does access to Onedrive not work when using a VPN...for example Norton's VPN. Onedrive acts like I do not have a network connection and will not allow my to sync the file between my PC and the Cloud service.

Greg: Appreciate the reply. Some info relative to the blog;

1 - Not using a Docking Station

2 - Norton VPN doesn't seem to allow adjusting Software Config Settings...

3 - Split Tunnelling - was set ok

4 - Proxy Settings - was ok

5 - Not connected via a Lan cable

6 - Updated Excel, but still have problem.

Other sites seems to work...bank access, broker access, amazon,
