I have MT300N-V2 with the latest firmware. I have an open vpn server where I generated ovpn file and uploaded this into MT300N. VPN works but it routes all the traffic via VPN. I only want to have a VPN tunnel to my openvpn server so I have an access to the openwrt’s shell in MT300N. How can I do this? I tried entering this in ovpn but it did not help: `pull-filter ignore "redirect-gateway"` If I use the same ovpn file from my ubuntu box using command `ovpn vpn_connection.ovpn`, it works and my internet traffic goes via gateway defined before connecting openvpn. ---

If you use mt300n, it should be v2.x firmware, so you can unticked the option “Force all traffic to VPN”. ---

Is this in the normal GUI or in the “advanced” luci gui? ---

It is not there. See my screenshots. And the firmware is up to date (v 3.012). ![2019-07-26_19-45](https://forum-static.gl-inet.com/original/2X/9/9b10727c029ee0c6b7edab575b7d194f7e7ef52e.png) ---

It is v3.x firmware. Please refer to this thread. [Openvpn configuration to avoid the default redirection (all through the VPN) - #6 by kyson-lok](https://forum.gl-inet.com/t/openvpn-configuration-to-avoid-the-default-redirection-all-through-the-vpn/6519/6) ---
