Route changes after ethernet VPN connection runs

[Joe M]

At the moment my computer network connection is route print is:
gateway: 193.168.100.45 DNS: 193.168.100.20 Wins: 193.168.100.20.
After I connect to a VPN server my computer loose the network ip settings
and replace it with the VPN connections setting.
Route print after vpn connection is gateway: 201.168.100.45 DNS:
201.168.100.20 Wins: 201.168.100.20.

Because the VPN connection also goes through the Ethernet card . The route
tables replace the network ip allocation with the vpn connections after
connected.

How do I avoid this and retain both network routes and vpn routes in the
routing tables? Thanks.

Actually, you don't lose the TCP/IP settings. The VPN settings are simply
added to your configuration. The default route gets replaced by the VPN one
if you, as Kim mentioned, have "Use default gateway on remote network"
enabled. Oh, and you can manually shape the routing table as you see fit
(for example make your default route a persistent one).
