Through Windows Firewall I assume? By implementing my own “kill switch” feature?
I want it to only be able to access internet through the VPN, otherwise access is blocked. But I have no idea how to create such a firewall rule.
Does anyone know the easiest way to do that? Without suffocating the connection etc.
Some VPN split tunneling features have “only this app” settings.
Use a VPN capable router. Control it upstream of your device.
I’m going to look into the split tunnelling feature.
Was hoping it can be done relatively simply via the Windows Firewall.
I remembered there are tools like this: ForceBindIP | r1ch.net
Also, if the VPN has a proxy function, simply configure the VPN Proxy IP address in the browser. You should test this, but I think it would work. This is by far the simplest way.
Appreciate the advice, unfortunately a lot of this stuff goes over my head so takes time to look into everything, haha.
However, I THINK I managed to achieve what I wanted, do you think this will work? I just tested it and seems to work.
I basically just made two Windows Firewall outbound rules, first one Blocks “Local area network” and “Wireless” interface types, while the the other Allows the “Remote access” type.
I basically just made two Windows Firewall outbound rules, by setting the Block rule to apply only to Local area network and Wireless network types, and then having an Allow rule that only applies to Remote access (VPN).
To just let the Windows built-in network categories to separate traffic and prevent leaks etc.
