It would be really helpful to see a screen capture of this.
It appears the application (??) is using a proxy server. Is there a specific reason for this?

This is not under nomadz02's control. The website (www.avigilon.com) uses a web application firewall hosted by incapsula. Remember that nomadz02 is connecting to their employer's remote access portal.
The WAF makes whitelisting a bit tricky, since the connection goes to the WAF, and not directly to the website. But the unlimited (unmanaged) profile should work as long as the router is seeing the real MAC address of the PC.
nomadz02: If you are using a Windows PC, then make sure it is classifying the wifi network as "private". Windows will sometimes rotate the MAC address on public networks (depending on the PC settings).
