          that your virtual VPN IP is shown up as gateway IP.

          That is normal for those Privacy-VPNs.

            Never seen this till today. Maybe this changed with 2.7?

            Anyway it seems weird for diagnosing routing issues.

              No, I guess it is just not your type of VPN. ๐Ÿ˜‰

                Agree, I do not use any VPN providers.
                However, also didn't notice from any post here.

                    Do you have a working solution for me? I can change my vpn provider no problem.
                    With NORDVPN I have never get successfully connected to internet.
                    I have also installed on seperated machines different locations both not works.

                      No. Their guides do work so the problem must be somewhere else.

                        Once I tried gateway group by using dual OPENVPN client(Dual NORDVPN Server connection over single WAN) paired together instead of using dual WAN.

                        At that way the Public IP and DNS changed somehow for once. After reboot of the pfsense. it did not come back again.

                        On my third pfsense I can use NORDVPN with dual WAN gateway group. It is working. But on the other hand single WAN setup never works.

                        It's been more than 2 months. I have to solve this problem.

                        I tried everything. Still no solution.

                        I am desperate right now

                          After the latest patch
                          Fix OpenVPN selecting wrong interface address when VIPs are present (Redmine #14646)
                          https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/14646
                          I could be able to route out my traffic and the OPENVPN client works as it is requested.
