Firewall Rules not working
-
That's exactly how I setup my 1 device to test the rule but when I do this, I don't get any internet connection on my single device. That's the issue.

NordVpn Openvpn client setting
Check this option
-
It wasn't checked. I checked it and tested the device by enabling the rule, No Internet on that device.

@yupq6wlc79ts
all right now.
check nat / outbound for wan interface

@yupq6wlc79ts
Here is and mistake
no nat rule for wan 192.168.1.0/24
It is necessary to add -
The reason was, It kinda acts as a kill switch. If the VPN goes down, no devices will be able to connect to the internet.
But my 5 devices aren't on VPN, so they should still be connected. What do I need to add/change here?

@yupq6wlc79ts
Add a nat outbound rule for the 192.168.1.0/24 on the wan interface as I showed in the picture
and 5 devices will be able to access the Internet via wan
Do not delete anything -
Tada!
@Konstanti - Thank you so much. That worked. I think I get now what you were saying earlier (no nat rule for wan), makes sense now that I get it. Lol.
Appreciate it.
So now, for each device I want to connect to WAN, I'll have to manually add the entry in the Firewalls - Rules? Any way I can combine all 5 of them in 1?

It is possible to allocate them in a separate subnet ( as I have done)
or create an alias firewall / alias ( write there all 5 ip)
and then use the alias in the rule as a source.
Then the rule will be one
