 +https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2716544
 +
 +In the default VPN connection configuration, a new default route will be added that will route all non-local traffic over the VPN connection.  This may, or may not work in your favor.  Routing all non-local traffic over the VPN may:
 +
 +  * **Facilitate network browsing and name resolution** on the connected network
 +    * Windows name resolution relies on Active Directory-integrated DNS or NetBIOS broadcast
 +  * **Complicate normal Internet (non-local) traffic**
 +    * Routing all non-local traffic over the VPN connection will almost certainly slow things down
 +    * Location-based services will be affected since they will detect your location as the VPN termination point
 +
 +:!: By default, the **Use default gateway on remote network** check box is selected.
 +
 +To change the **Use default gateway on remote network** setting for IPv6 and IPv4, follow these steps:
 +
 +  - Run ''ncpa.cpl'' to open the **Network Connections** Control Panel applet
 +  - Right-click the VPN connection, and then click **Properties**
 +  - Click **Networking** (tab)
 +  - Select **Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)** and then click **Properties**
 +  - Click **Advanced**
 +  - Click the **IP Settings** tab
 +  - Disable the addition of a new default route by clearing the **Use default gateway on remote network** check box
