Re: Fighting the dialup side effects

The article you mentioned is dedicated to IE. I was talking about
traffic routing per se. That is, what would IE installation have to do
with the fact that a regular PING stops reaching internet hosts after
a dialup connection is esablished? I don't even use this browser. Or
did I not understand you fully?

You are correct, I wasn't even considering this to be a routing issue, which
I should have and it definitely is. However, the article you posted
previously is for VPN client connections, if this is a VPN connection, the
article relates to your issue.
From your original post, it is not clear what type the connection is, but it
really does not matter, if it gets a default gateway, it's going to be an
issue. VPN connections, on the other hand, should have a way to override
getting this default route. At least the built-in VPN client from Microsoft
does.
