I don't know what the issue is, but if you can't connect to the internet, you can't use the services.

It sounds like a problem with the operating system when it connect to the internet using your phone as hotspot
Try connecting and disconnecting from the hotspot a few times at home and see what happens, and if you can learn something from that
If you are on Windows the network drivers can be shaky - you may need to update them, or simply uninstall and reinstall your network drivers

This happened to me a couple of months ago.
I had everything installed, Traktor, Ableton, Rekordbox plus much more.
I wanted to see what would happen.

It's got to be internet related.
I simplify things.
Turn off windows updates.
Remove as many programs as possible.
Check your firewall and block all items except the important ones such as vdj itself.
I even uninstalled Firefox since it has a updater program.
Also I disabled my laptop onboard sound card which may cause conflicts with my main controller card. This may be controversial but it works in my case.

Basically tidy up your system!

Note:
I now still use the internet with Deezer and often buy songs from Amazon and Sunfly plus doing information searches with no problems.
I'm assuming you did a clean Windows install to avoid the manufacturers bloatware.

Turn off windows updates.

I've been careless here..turn off auto updates and do them manually during the week when your not working. Keeping a Internet connected laptop fully updated is important.
