Using Google Search from URL bar detected as unusual traffic every time

OK it’s just happened on WiFi connecting directly to the router. If I create a new profile or use a private window, I can search one time and it’s fine, then accept the Google prefs and then it happens again. I have a feeling it’s not Brave but something weird happening in the network… Although I have no VPN active, Malwarebytes, anti virus etc… Argh
