Running Asus 5300 - Merlin 380.67.

I have configured 5 VPN clients, all with selective routing (specific locations needed for 2 devices + work + privacy). 3 of the VPNs are paid services, while 2 are private VPNs I have setup as separate VPS servers.

Clients 1, 2, 3 are paid servers.

Client 4 is a London based VPS.

Client 5 is a Chicago based VPS.

Clients 1-3 work properly, performing selective routing as they should.

Client 4 works as it should, when client 5 is not connected.

Once client 5 becomes connected, all hell breaks loose on selective routing for 4 & 5. The two seem to act as if they're both programmed to have the same selective routes, and are routing through the tunnel that responds first (... or the one that connected first?)

As you can see in screenshot 1, I have configured a static route on client 4 (london VPS) for google. As the lower portion shows, it is routing through client 5 (chicago VPS). Screenshot 2 is the selective routing configuration for client 5, which only has the route setup for the (demo) website, twitter.com.

Am I doing something wrong with the configuration?

Edit: added an additional screenshot. I restarted the connection of client 5, however did not adjust the static routes. Twitter should still be going through Chicago, however as you can see, once I re-connected client 5, it pushed the routing through client 4.

Do clients 4 and 5 use the same ports?

I think whoever helps you is going to need more information.
