You Cannot Connect to the Internet After You Connect to a VPN Server

This issue may occur if you configure the VPN connection to use the default gateway on the remote network. This setting overrides the default gateway settings that you specify in your Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) settings.

To resolve this issue, configure the client computers to use the default gateway setting on the local network for Internet traffic

Configure the VPN Client TCP/IP Properties

To disable the Use Default Gateway on Remote Network setting in the VPN dial-up connection item on the client computer:

  1. Double-click My Computer, and then click the Network and Dial-up Connection slink.
  2. Right-click the VPN connection that you want to change, and then click Properties.
  3. Click the Networking tab, click Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) in the Components checked are used by this connection list, and then click Properties.
  4. Click Advanced, and then click to clear the Use default gateway on remote network check box.
  5. Click OK, click OK, and then click OK.
