Windows 10: Phone Link Disconnects from ScreenMirroring after I've turned on the VPN on my phone

I know there is the thread same as this already, but I couldn't solve the problem with using that methods. I'm using the OPPO Reno 12 Pro and using the South Korean VPN called JLVpn can be found on the Mac AppStore and iOS AppStore and Google Play Store, and after trying all of the methods mentioned there, it didn't solved. I've even factory reseted my phone and laptop laptop: LG Gram 2022, and found out that problem continues. I've sent feedback + the customer contact but only answer that says "There might be a problem with your home's router." and What? I've already turned off and waited

Phone Link disconnects when a VPN connection is established

Either a recent update from Nord or Microsoft is causing my Phone Link connection to go offline. It has worked fine since I first began using it when I upgraded to Windows 11 until the last few days. I added Phone Link to the apps list for Split Tunneling, but that did not fix the issue.

When the VPN is active, it disconnects my phone from my PC and shows offline as the status. When I deactivate the VPN, it reconnects to my phone in a few seconds. I have also tried numerous other Nord VPN servers. Same problem.

I searched through the other questions regarding this same problem, but there was either no solution or the one listed did not work.

 

Phone Link disconnects when a VPN connection is established

For me, with Proton VPN turned on Windows and Android, the Phone Link 1.22112.142.0 app on Windows works just fine. (I can send a text on my phone by typing it on my laptop.) But what does not work in this case is that I cannot open the extra window to see my phone screen. One way that I am able to fix this so I can see my phone screen on my laptop is to disconnect Proton VPN on my phone.

 

No wifi on phone if my PC is turned off

Have you did a full hardware reset on the router?

Also do you have any kind of VPN software running on your PC that the phone needs? If possible disconnect/disable the VPN on your phone and try again.


Also you may have a connection manager type app that might block you from connecting to certain wifi access points and routers if it's a company phone. Or your workplace might have software installed on your PC that could control access??? (This is prolly not the case but might as well post that thought here anyways juuuust in case. )
