      Hey Guys,

      I have a situation where my pFSense firewall acting as a OpenVPN client connects to another VPN server stops routing traffic. This seems to happen when the IP address changes for the pPSense box via the OpenVPN client. After a short period of time about 5-10 min will the clients will resume using it as if nothing happened at all. I am thinking the state tables need to update for the client and until the do the client will stop working. I can connect from pfsense while that transition happens and the internet still works.

      Anyone have any idea how I can resolve this.

      Setup

      clients (win10) –--> pfsense ---> vpn provider ---> internet

      Kind Regards
