Are you running any VPN or do you have any firewall running on your device? Also, which O.S are you using to run the Fing desktop? Can you share the screenshot of the Fing desktop network context as well?

No VPN or firewall running on my Macbook laptop (MacOS 10.15.6) running Fing 2.10
No matter how many times I select the network context, the same error message returns. I've even tried selecting different contexts (like Office) with no change in behavior. It's as if Fing does not remember the selection.
.
Have you tried to set the network context from the device scan page? Scan for devices and then go to network tab and then click on context and then set it from there and then check if the issue persists?

Updated to 2.2.0 today. Same problem.
Can you please delete the network identified by Fing desktop from the web app or Fing mobile app and then run the scan on Fing desktop again to see if the issue persists? Thanks

Question: What does Fing do if you have multiple WiFi access points with different MAC addresses? does Fing index networks based on SSID or MAC address of the router? Or some hybrid? Could having multiple APs confuse Fing in this way?
