News and weather won't work over VPN

Nokia 635 running 8.1 with Cyan. When I activate the VPN (L2TP with IPSec) the standard news and weather apps show as being offline. I haven't checked all apps to see if there are others that show offline but most others seem to work.

I've tried multiple different VPN servers and even two different VPNs. I also deleted the news app and then switched on the VPN before reinstalling it and it installed fine but wouldn't run, it would say to check my connection.
