No: persons are succesfully using a VPN with Download Station, so it is possible
@ billat29:
Yes it looks OK, here are the values I have:
Panel->General->Default Gateway: 10.8.1.1 (VPN)
It looks also OK, here are the values I get, Control Panel->Network->Netwok Interface:
VPN-NordVPN connected,
Connection time: ....
IP adress: 10.8.1.7
Gateway: 10.8.1.1
Now back to Download Station, I use a the following permanent download link to know the IP address exposed by the NAS: http://ipmagnet.services.cbcdn.com
Tracker Tab, I get:
URL Status
http://ipmagnet.services.cbcdn.com IP: 194.127.172.80
If I go to https://mon-ip.io in order to know my public address I get: 86.241.144.201
If I go to http://ipmagnet.services.cbcdn.com I get: FYI, the address you've accessed this page with is 2a01:cb1c:8072:fc00:d5:b227:724d:61a9 which looks like a IPv6, so I don't know if I am protected by the VPN or not ?????
