Issue Details
When I select 127.0.0.1 as the DNS on AdGuard VPN, your software is ignoring it and trying to bypass Portmaster. A local DNS resolver. AdGuard VPN completely ignores the DNS servers setting in Settings / App settings / DNS servers and tries to connect to multiple DNS servers in US (8.8.8.8), CN (223.6.6.6), CH (9.9.9.11), which is the reason why Portmaster blocks it for bypassing the local DNS. When a specific DNS server is specified in Settings, AdGuard VPN should only use that one: I believe this is a bug since it's not following what the user has chosen.
Expected Behavior
No response
Actual Behavior
In both cases, DNS set to Default or DNS set to 127.0.0.1 AdGuard VPN says "Connected" but then when I try to browse any website none can be reached. As soon as I disconnect the VPN websites can be reached again.
