Running multiple vpn clients with multiple vpn tuns

Installing and Using OpenWrt
1

Hi, so I have a rather peculiar plan for my setup. I need a VPN for my PlayStation and Chromecast. However, those two will be connected to two different servers (the former singapore, the latter usa). My VPN provider is NordVPN.

So, I have tried to use two separate tun interfaces, so those two servers can connect simultaneously. I have also installed vpn policy based routing. However, everytime I connect one server, the other shuts down. Can anyone help me with this? What did I do wrong?

Thank you.

Disable the default gateway redirection for both VPNs:

thank you very much for the swift response.

ah, if that's the answer, then I guess I'm dead. hahaha. My ISP aggressively blocks the dns of the vpn if the WAN is the default gateway, so I guess I'm out of luck (tried this before, and the result was I had no internet connection) perhaps something like dnscrypt can help with that?

Add a route to the DNS via the VPN, or offer specific DNS directly to LAN clients.
