Can I know which service provider you are using?
Ok so +1 on this issue.
I am using Mac based policies however but the issue persists.
If i configure Mac 1 to use the VPN, and everything else on the network won’t it works but not as i expected. Certains domains such as amazon.co.uk and others do not load/work when on a machine with Mac 2 (never touches the VPN)
Pls try the latest beta firmware. This should be solved already.
I am running the latest 3.0.27 but the load average on my router is now sat around 4.5 which is very high.
When is the beta version likely to be pushed to GL.iNet download center
Since this contains 3.0.24 but no mention of 3.0.25, or 3.0.26
https://dl.gl-inet.com/firmware/ar750s/testing/
Pls try 3.104.
If you don’t open the UI the load may not be that high. Close your browser (tab), ssh to the router and check load again.
I have the same problem on the GL-AR750S-Ext router. I’m running the latest firmware (3.104) and the issue still isn’t fixed.
I’m using OpenVPN with TorGuard. When I set the Policy to only allow VPN on certain MAC addresses, the internet on devices which aren’t in the list become so slow that they aren’t even usable. Often times the internet speeds on non-VPN devices will drop down to 0mbps while the VPN devices continue working just fine with normal speeds. It seems like something seriously bad is going on, almost as though the router is having trouble distributing the traffic properly. Maybe a cache setting somewhere? This doesn’t appear to be an issue on the MT300N-V2 Mango. Could it be a hardware issue? Bad firmware? What’s the deal here. Other’s seem to have the same problem and the issue still hasn’t been resolved.

Just tried it and it works perfectly. No problems now. Will you include this fix in the next official update?
Maybe it can be a check box to toggle function on or off if it has to stay for some people.
We will fix this in the 19.07 release.

@luochongjun could you please tell me the github repository and commit hash that you have used to build the image “openwrt-gl-ar750s-fix-policy.tar”? I would like to understand how you have fixed this issue in this image.
Hi. I have almost the same issue as corefocus. GL-AR750S-Ext router, firmware 3.104. When I set policy to not allow VPN for certain MAC addresses, internet speeds on non-VPN devices are very poor (0-1mb/s, so that streaming is impossible).
@luochongjun I see you posted a firmware link for corefocus to try, but when I click the link I am not able to download anything. Are you able to repost the fix for me to try?

I’ve read some post here mentioning the new firmware is about to be released within weeks. That could be the reason there was no firmware in those link.
Thanks. Will keep an eye out.
Has this been fixed in any of the recently released betas or final release?
Applying a policy that excludes certain macs from VPN usage just kills (extremely slows down) internet on these devices. Tested that with the final 3.105 and 3.105_beta2 with AGH.
3.105 has resolved this issue. Do you still have the same issue with the latest release?
Yes, I mentioned the exact scenario and builds I tried.
To go further in details, I’m using Wireguard with Mullvad and the kill switch is enabled.
If killswitch does not enable, does the same problem exist?
Can you provide a screenshot of your configuration? I’m going to simulate the test.
