Hi All,

My Pritunl VPN is dropping off traffic randomly after about 10 minutes of being connected. The initial connection works perfectly, IP is allocated and everything is functional. Then after x amount of time (where x could be anywhere from 10 minutes to 60 minutes) all traffic gets dropped. The VPN connection is still active, IP is still allocated, but absolutely no traffic will pass through the VPN.

Does anyone have any ideas on what might be causing this?

Thanks,  
M
