What it appears that Rob needs to do to fix this is to have split
tunneling enable so it can send access to the local lan, but this has to
be done from the VPN server (main router).  He also needs to enable access
to local lan on his vpn client.
I've run into this several times in the past when we ran a large vpn network.
