    386.3_2 VPN Leak? How to ensure that all traffic on a device goes through VPN as soon as it connects?

    Just an update on this issue. I pretty much gave up and built my own router using Raspberry Pi. Problem solved.

    386.3_2 VPN Leak? How to ensure that all traffic on a device goes through VPN as soon as it connects?

    Just tried it, still same thing. Here's something interesting though, I just had another similar - though from a different manufacturer - device delivered, and upon swapping the new device for the other one in the network, the new device is announcing the VPN address. So now I'm starting to...

    386.3_2 VPN Leak? How to ensure that all traffic on a device goes through VPN as soon as it connects?

    I just tried turning off UPNP, same results. Is there anything else that can be turned off that might be available to the device to get the WAN IP? Though more importantly, if a device is set to be behind the VPN, shouldn't the router know not to give the WAN IP to the device under no...

    386.3_2 VPN Leak? How to ensure that all traffic on a device goes through VPN as soon as it connects?

    Hi eibgrad, Just to make sure that I'm understanding this right, and that it applies to what I'm experiencing: In my case, neither the router or VPN are being turned off or back on. In this case, it's the connected device in question that seems to be exposed to the WAN while it's booting up...

    386.3_2 VPN Leak? How to ensure that all traffic on a device goes through VPN as soon as it connects?

    First of all, I want to thank everyone for all the great work on Asus-Merlin. I've been using it for years. Here's the scenario I'm dealing with: My router (GT-AX11000 running 386.3_2) is connected to Verizon WAN, and every time I reboot the router, I end up with a new IP address. This used to...
