[PLUG] question on how to fix a mysterious DNS address problem

[American Citizen]

To all:

running a nmcli command showed me where the VPN address is coming from

nmcli --show-secrets connection show tun0

...lot of output including

ipv4.addresses:                         10.18.0.38/16
ipv4.gateway:                           10.18.0.1

So my openSuse Leap 15.4 system using Network Manager and the openvpn 
built in component is setting up the address into the /etc/resolv.conf file.

Apparently this VPN is useless to my Netgear c6300v2 cable modem/router 
as at this point in time, I don't believe the router has anyway of 
connecting to the vpn tunnel.

I am going to ignore this VPN address for now.

My question has been answered for now.
