remote SSL VPN can't connect to internet connection

Hi all

I have an ASG at work and I would like to allow remote clients to access to our work LAN, I have successfully set up the SSL VPN connection using the Astaro client downloaded from UserPortal. Now all clients are able to connect to the work LAN using their laptops remotely, the clients mostly use what ever WIFI network they have (home/airport).

the problem is when they run Astrao SSL client they lose their connection with the internet. I was able to solve this partially by adding a masquerading rule to allow them to connect to the internet but this means that they are going to connect to the internet through the ASG and use the work public ip address which I don't want. (I disabled the masquerading rule)

all what I want is to allow clients connecting using SSL VPN to be able to still use their local connection (whatever that is) to connect the internet directly and not through the ASG.

NOTES

here is my setup

ASG is connected to the internet through an ADSL modem which is setup as a bridge (so ASG is handelling PPPOE )

ASG internal ipaddress = 172.16.100.1
ASG internal network = 172.16.100.1/24 netmask 255.255.255.0
SSL VPN pool = 172.16.200.1/24 netmask 255.255.255.0

from ASG websdmin > remote access > advanced
DNS server #1 = 172.16.100.1
DNS server #2 = 172.16.100.1

when I perform ipconfig /all on clients here is what I get
Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection 3:

after the client connects using Astaro's ssl client I noticed this entry in the client's routing table :
