The thing is that I cannot access the internet (Download Manager) - even ping (using putty) is not responding after having made the VPN connection.Btw - I deliberatly did not (yet) make any portforwarding changes, as I wanted to see if something as simple as this would work.Because I thought it might be a firewall issue, I temporary disabled my router firewall - no luck. Hope you could get me in the right direction... Netstat before and after making VPN connection.

SOLVED I later found out that a direct ping to an IP-address did work, therefore it had to be the DNS that was misconfigured.What did work is: putting the DNS Server of AirVPN as the Alternative DNS Server of Synology diskstation. Hereby the steps:- Alternative DNS Server: you can find it in Control Panel > Network > General- DNS of yourVPN provider (in our case AirVPN): 1) in Windows, start cmd 2) ipconfig /all 3) Look for the DNS Server under the TAP-Windows Adapter properties. Good luck!Marc Quote Share this post Link to post
