I am on checkpoint vpn and i had it working with https://github.com/rancher-sandbox/rancher-desktop/issues/3091#issuecomment-1268931636, but now my internet connectivity from WSL doesn't work anymore (i am on 1.6.1). ping google.com doesn't work, but nslookup google.com does resolve just fine. Anything i can check on my side?

@calm-sugar-3169 can you take a look?

did icmp work before? most companies don’t route icmp to the internet so it may be a better test to ping a dns server or other core appliance on the otherside of your VPN connection

@microscopic-crayon-31537 the ICMP should work from within the

rancher-desktop

distro with the workaround mentioned. However, something to keep in mind is if you restart any of the following; your machine, VPN client or Rancher Desktop you will have to run the

Get-NetIPInterface

again, since it is not persistent (I believe there is a persistent flag on those commands but you should avoid them, it may result into unknown problems). Are you able to trigger the

Get-NetIPInterface

to see if it works again? BTW, this is not a permanent solutions from Rancher Desktop, this is just a workaround for us to understand the core of the issue with WSL routing when VPN tunnel is enabled.

@calm-sugar-3169 ty! it seems i needed to execute those commands more often.. Get-NetIPInterface was lying to me showing 5001 and 1, but apparently that wasn't the truth..
