Windows Central Question

Device: Lumia 950XL
OS: 10.0.14393.693

I created a L2TP w/ certificate connection to my VPN server at home. Once the user is authenticated, the connection is established without any issues

When I attempt to connect to my home router 192.168.0.1, for example, from Edge, the page cannot be displayed. actually I cant seem to connect to any networked resource behind my VPN

I also have a Surface Pro 4 where I set up the same connection and it works without issue. (I'm running the VPN from outside of my network)

Am I trying to use this feature for functionality that it was not intended for.. Is the only purpose of the VPN on a mobile device to protect traffic as i'm browsing?
