I have a GT-AX11000 running 386.3_2 firmware. I have tried to setup the VPN (IVPN) with the best settings from IVPN and this forum. I have VPN Director setup to use the killswitch. I have noticed that occasionally (and extremely irritatingly) the VPN will go down (if I go into the VPN Client screen, it will actually show "Off" for service state) but all my computers can still access the Internet (but obviously not using the VPN). I have confirmed that the computers are in the local IP scope in VPN Director and that their interface is correct.
I was browsing some of the posts in this forum about the current killswitch functionality. Am I right that the killswitch only works at boot time? (One thread about the killswitch seemed to imply this, but another one suggests the killswitch should operate whenever the VPN goes down.) My VPN connection always works fine at boot time. The problem is that it goes down randomly (infrequently) well after the GT-AX11000 is booted, and then all my clients continue to be able to hit the Internet as if nothing happened. (If I check the IP address from a client before the VPN goes down, it's the VPN as I expect... after the VPN goes down, it's my ISP.)
If the killswitch only works at boot time, I will find another way to make sure that if the VPN goes down, the clients cannot continue to hit the Internet.
Thanks!
