OpenVPN client (to ExpressVPN) kills IPv4 access to the internet
-
Hi
I am new to pfSense and am trying to setup an OpenVPN gateway using ExpressVPN for 1 VLAN, aka, any devices on that VLAN would route traffic through ExpressVPN.
Following the instructions on the ExpressVPN website, I was able to get the tunnel up. However, as soon as the tunnel was up, none of the devices in an VLAN or LAN could access the internet. Since I also have ipv6, I could check that it was still routing on an ipv6 address but there was no ipv4 address.
I am at wits end on what do here, would appreciate your help.
Thanks!

I assume, you didn't follow the instructions exactly. Which one? -
@viragomann the forum spam filter wont let me post a link but its the first link on google if you search with "How to set up ExpressVPN on pfSense (OpenVPN)" (with quotes).

Seems all fine in that guidance.Did you assign the interface (chap. 3) and configure the outbound NAT properly?

@viragomann yah, figured out what the issue was. seems like because the routing policy was set to *, it was messing up where to send the traffic. Once I explicitly set the gateways for each of the VLAN's, it worked.
