    By default, the client sets up a default route to the RRAS server, so
that all traffic goes over the VPN link. You can prevent this by clearing
the "use default gateway .. " setting in the client's connection properties.
This leaves the default route set to the Internet connection and sets a
subnet route through the tunnel. See KB 254231 for details.
