I have 3 Synology diskstations running on different places/LAN.
Whenever one of them is connected, a second connection to another VPN is disconnected immediately after connection.
Does viscosity allow only one connection at a time?

Hi egonschurter,

Viscosity supports multiple simultaneous connections, however using more than one connection at once requires a advanced understanding of how the networking routing is set up for each connection.

Typically you'll want to ensure that each connection is using a split-routing setup (i.e. not routing all traffic through the connection). In your case it sounds likely that the first connection is routing all traffic though it, so when you connect to the second VPN connection its encrypted traffic is travelling through the first connection. So when you disconnect the first connection it causes the second connection's link to be severed.

Cheers,
James
