Internet access lost when connecting to VPN

Post by tenten8401 » Tue Mar 14, 2017 2:43 am

Hey there, I have a VPN client on my linux machine that's connecting to a VPN server. I know the VPN server works as it works fine on my windows machine. When connecting to the server on linux, I'm getting a destination unreachable error when pinging or anything. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I am on Arch Linux, and installed softethervpn from the AUR. I'm controlling softethervpn-client with the windows vpn client manager via wine.


Edit: I seem to loose connection to the internet even if I'm not connected to a VPN but the client service is started.

First screenshot is when I try connecting, and second is when I disable the "Tun" interface:

I think some invalid default gateway is configured on virtual NIC.
