    I think that would help, personally I would be less inclined to think of it as a failover then. Some hovertext or a note explaining the behavior would be useful too, if possible. That’s pretty much what I looked for before posting on the forums.

    I guess I was just confused by the usage of the word ‘alternative’, it seemed to imply it would be used ‘instead of’ instead of as a second, equally balanced traffic. I guess that might just be me, and I couldn’t see any hovertext explaining it’s behaviour in the UI, so I was interested.

    As to why I was looking for a failover in the first place, It’s not really a need. I have two DNS servers installed on Raspberry PIs, and I was just expecting to see traffic on one unless the other went down. I just presumed that if I unplugged or powered one down, requests for DNS would slow down as they repeatedly fail. I’ve not tested that, it’s just an assumption. If I card that much about it I guess I would put my own load balancer in between.

    Correct. Router is 192.168.0.1, and I have every other machine running on 192.168.0.X. The one I pinged for example wired to the ‘LAN’ network.

    I’ve checked today, and I have no idea why, but it’s suddenly begun to work. I’d preveiuously tried restarting the service, and the router, and the machine running the VMS, and pretty much everything under the sun, but it hadn’t worked. Today it suddenly decided to, I get a response and the network responds as expected…

    I have no idea why, but case closed I guess.

    I mean, sure. Here’s a screenshot of the failed ping:

    No, as I said in my second comment, longing literally anything else fails. The only thing that works is internet.

    I get a ping response, and I can easily reach the web page:

    There is something wrong here then. I have a user using OpenVPN who is not a guest:
    OpenWifi

    I’ve got a few VMs running things like Sonarr, and I have the network up with the default config (LAN source can reach LAN destination and so on): . When my phone connects to the Wifi connection labelled as ‘LAN’, I have no issue connecting to Sonarr + the other VMs running similar apps restricted to LAN.

    When I move my phone to cellular data only, and connect to the network via the OpenVPN server, I am not able to access devices restricted to the ‘LAN’. I can connect to the OpenVPN Router no issue, but pinging anything on the network *at all* fails.
