Tutorials and FAQs / Re: HOWTO - Routing Traffic over Private VPN

« on: February 10, 2018, 10:19:39 am »

Hi

I have been trying to get this working, all the ip addresses I setup to go through the VPN work correctly. However any traffic not going via the VPN can not reach the internet. The 1st time I tried these steps I could get the internet to work if I set a static ip address with a DNS. The second time I tried everything seemed to connect correctly to the internet but I still could not reach anything and setting a manual ip and DNS did not work this time.

Is there any way to test why this is not working correctly?



thanks

Paul,

I'm having this exact same issue. I was previously on pfsense and recently switched over. I set up OPNsense to where all traffic routed through a VPN, but I set up specific LAN rules to allow certain boxes, like my Roku, to exit through the WAN gateway for Netflix/Amazon purposes. When I try to do that same rule in OPNsense, I get no internet connectivity at all. I tried to identity where the failure is but haven't been able to figure it out yet. If anyone has thoughts, please let me know.
