Hello - I am using the AC1750 Wireless Dual Band Gigabit Router (Archer C7) vers. 1.1. I have a usb drive hooked up to the router than I have mapped to my PC which uses Windows 10. The NAS works perfectly. However, whenever I am using a VPN (I use Windscribe), I cannot access the NAS. I have tried remapping the NAS drive and also made sure that all of the VPN options are enabled in the Security Section of the Router settings. If anyone has any suggestions as to how I can still access the NAS while using the VPN, I would be very appreciative. Thank you.

You want to access the remote network but the windows 10 computer still use the C7 as gateway to access internet. Now it seems your computer is using the VPN server as gateway, so you cannot access the NAS in the local network anymore.
If you are using the default VPN client software on windows 10, you can disable "use default gateway on remote network to achieve this goal. You may try to find similar setting on your Windscribe.
