<div>
was it correct?<br />
<br />
some VPN configurations override default gateway and try to use the gateway at the VPN's end, and if blocked for some rule, then you have no more internet.

This could depend on how the VPN is setup on the other end. &nbsp;The VPN policy in a host Sonicwall can be set to disable the client's internet connection to protect the network.

Sonicwall VPN kills my internet connection, why?

Sonicwall VPN

A virtual private network (VPN) is a network that uses a public telecommunication infrastructure, such as the Internet, to provide remote offices or travelling users access to a central organizational network securely. VPNs encapsulate data transfers using secure cryptographic methods and other security mechanisms to ensure that only authorized users can access the network and that the data cannot be intercepted.
