VPN Plus with L2TP/IPSec cant access local lan with Remote Default Gateway disabled.

[MadMatt]

So i've been using this setup for a long time.

Lately my VPN connects normally but I no longer have access to the remote local LAN.

I can fix this by editing the Advanced TCP/IPv4 settings and re-checking the "Use default gateway on remote network"

However I don't want to use my VPN this way, Its always worked without using the remote gateway, I don't know why it doesn't anymore..

Okay I seem to have fixed it.

Needed to add a manual route

add-vpnconnectionroute -connectionname "Home VPN" -destinationprefix "192.168.2.0/24" -passthru

confirm its been added with the netstat -r command.
