That's not been my experience. without the Router WAN rule, nothing seems to get out to the internet.
@ColinTaylor is correct. With the VPN Director enabled, ALL traffic will default to the WAN unless there is a specific rule to route it to the VPN.
BTW, you really should have created your own thread. The OP has yet to resolve his own issues, and having yours here as well just creates confusion. Besides, there's no reason to believe your problems are related anyway, at least NOT yet.
