About the direct to redirect (huh?) internet traffic thing. If you're an employee in, say, a bank, the admins want to see all the traffic going out and coming in to your computer. To do this the default outgoing route (Internet) has to be through the VPN link, then to the VPN server's default route, and then back to you. This is secure but it makes casual browsing a bit expensive.
If you don't force the default route to go through the VPN link, you'll have one route for 10.8.x.x, and a default route pointing to the router on the hotspot you're on. Browsing will be faster but the hotspot router will know what you've done (besides hitting your VPN server.) Basically, if you don't know the purpose of redirecting the default route through the VPN, there is little chance you really need it. 4 SB 3 iPeng (iPhone + iPad) SqueezeLite Squeezebox Server 7.8.1 (Debian 7.5) with plugins: CD Player, WaveInput by bpa IRBlaster by Gwendesign (Felix) Server Power Control by Gordon Harris Smart Mix by Michael Herger PowerSave by Jason Holtzapple Song Info, Song Lyrics by Erland Isaksson WeatherTime by Martin Rehfeld ShairTunes by StuartUSA Local Player, BBC iPlayer, SwitchPlayer by Triode Auto Dim Display, SaverSwitcher, ContextMenu by Peter Watkins. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ epoch1970's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16711 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=102819
