    Kill Switch & Lan Interface

After a couple of hours of network inactivity the VPN "disconnects", the external IP becomes "unknown" and the connection goes directly to the ISP. Even though the kill switch is active...

    Does the VPN kill switch work with Merlin?

    I signed up to ExpressVPN this week where their knowledge with Merlin is limited. Apart from this enquiry, their live support is fantastic with no waiting times. I found information about setting up a VPN with a kill switch here. https://www.vpnunlimitedapp.com/help/manuals/asuswrt-merlin When...
