Changing VPN Settings: Sending All Network Traffic via the VPN Connection

For a VPN connection between two FRITZ!Box home networks, the communication between the two networks takes place via the VPN connection. Internet queries from the home network of the FRITZ!Box are not routed via the VPN connection, but forwarded by the FRITZ!Box directly into the internet. If all of the internet traffic from one of the two FRITZ!Box home networks should also use the VPN connection, then you can specify this in the VPN configuration.

  1. Click on "Internet" in the user interface of the FRITZ!Box.
  2. Click on "Permit Access".
  3. Select the "VPN" tab.
  4. Select from the "VPN Connections between the FRITZ!Box and Other Networks" list the VPN connection for which you want to change the setting.
  5. Click on the button to edit the VPN configuration.
  6. On the "VPN Connection" page, click on "Advanced Settings for Network Traffic".
  7. Enable the setting "Send all network traffic via the VPN connection".
  8. Click "OK".
