Default Solved: VPN take precedence over Lan-To-Web

Hi,

I service & monitor customer systems using the Windows VPN client in a
LAN-to-LAN situation. When the VPN connection is established and
I start IE it accesses the web through the customer VPN connection instead
of my own LAN to internet connection. IE is set to Never Dial a
Connection.
I want all traffic initialy follow my local LAN-to-internet route. Only
when
the IP-address matches the VPN range, traffic should go there.

I checked My Network Locations / Properties / Advanced / Advanced Settings
but there is no option to give local Lan-to-Web connections precedence
over
VPN connections.

How to solve this problem?

TIA,

What is the VPN client your are using?

When you use the standard VPN (PPTP) client that is delivered with XP,
this usually forces all TCP traffic over to the "client network's"
gateway. This is by design. However, you can over-ride this by
access the TCP/IP Protocol setting inside the VPN "connect" in Network
Connections. Look under the "Advanced" button of the Internet
Protocol (TC/IP) Properties and then on the General tab. Uncheck
"Used default gateway on the remote network.."

---------------------

After digging long time I found the setting you mentioned above.
It solved my issue.

Thanks,
John7
