I use Cisco secure mobility client to connect to my office VPN. After I connect to VPN all my requests go through the office gateway and my access to internet through my locally installed router (connected wirelessly) is blocked/not reachable. How do i rectify this?

I've searched on the web and stack overflow, and they suggest split tunneling which I think is not an option here as I cant change the Cisco settings. Is there any work around for this? I've tried adding router address to the IP table , but that isn't helping.

My OS is windows 7.

Please let me know if you need any other information.

Mike is right, this is off-topic but I can tell you that unless the Cisco VPN administrator allows split-tunneling then there's no work-around for this. The best solution I can tell you, is to make a VirtualBox VM with your OS of choice and use that VM to connect to the VPN, thereby leaving your host machine free to browse the internet locally.
