Could you explain more what cannot access to the VPN means for you? Are you able to access general internet resources? Or are you looking to access the VPN specific endpoints?

Hi,
my ISP blocks some websites, on the host when VPN is connected, I can access them, but on WSL2 OS (with WSLg), I can't.
tried on Ubuntu and Debian with Microsoft Edge Dev.
