Issues with Roon and Nord VPN

Tinkering

Has anyone had any experience with running Roon and NordVPN. I cant get it to run when i have the VPN connected.
I also have run it again with the Treat protection pro off its still will not play.
I have also an error message:
Error loading page
please check your network connection :
When connecting to Qobuz.
have no error message on Roon it just skip tracks and font play them

I am based in the UK

I have disabled Threat Protection Pro and Roon then seem to work
I have enabled split tunnelling and made dns server exception for zRoon and Qobuz.

I use Norton anti virus no ad blocker or other VPN

I have emailed Nord over the past 3 days still no solutions. Now waiting for the next suggestions

I thought i would ask the zroon community as some always seems to have an answer.

Thanks in anti

It would probably help if you provide more info on your set-up.

Is the problem related to connecting roon remote to the roon core?

I use NordVPN with Roon without any issues (I realise this doesn’t help, but I don’t recall having to make any specific NordVPN config changes)

I’m sure you’ll get to the bottom of it with help from the knowledgable folks here

I’ve have the same with Proton (mobile). It appears that when I’m on my home network, my phone will tunnel straight out and then can’t reach the Roon server since it doesn’t see the inside network. When I turn it off, I can see the server just fine. Both my iOS and Android device suffer the same. Mobile versions don’t appear to have a setting for split tunneling in my limited checks.

I’m working on figuring out the secret sauce for Roon Arc. Tailscale on iOS works well (can’t run Proton and Tailscale at the same time). Still working on Android. I haven’t spent a lot of time with it yet.

Sounds like you’re using Roon on your desktop computer? Is the Roon server on a different piece of hardware than your desktop? VPN on my desktop (Nord and Proton) seem to work okay with the Roon server on my local network, both PC/Mac/Linux based and Nucleus One appliance. But I definitely have to disable it on my mobile devices when on my local network.

Proton works fine here, with Roon Arc on iOS. I’m really surprised how smooth everything is running these days
