OpenVPN & Windows 7 dont play nice when no default GW is specified

**Symptom : **Openvpn network shows as “unidentified network” and is grayed out ( you cant click it to change the network location )

**Solution : **add these lines to your config :

NLA issues

route-metric 512
route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0

restart your connection

make sure the openvpn network is either “home” or “work” network :
