      So you normally have Internet in Sandbox and only lose Internet when host is connected to a VPN, right?

      would you mind mentioning which type of VPN do you use?

        My internet works flawlessly in Windows Sandbox without a VPN.

         

        I use WireGuard, my VPN "host" is AzireVPN.

         

        Also worth noting is that Application Guard works while connected, but my real IP shows when I browse.
