Since I have installed protonvpn the reslov.conf file always gets overwritten or sets back to ::1.

I always have to manually edit the file before I can access the internet. It doesn´t matter what I set in the network configs in the GUI of my system.

When I start protonvpn the file gets updated to someting like 10.x.x.x which is probably protons dns server. But before this works I have to change the file manually so that proton can access the internet.

Does the resolv.conf has precedence over the graphical settings? How can I stop this? Or modify it so that the file only gets updated when I actually start protonvpn?

thanks

Okay the problem was the killswitch feature. I had to disable it with:

nmcli connection show --active

then picking the right connection and deleting it

nmcli connection delete [connection name]

here is the detailed instruction: killswitch disable
