Default Can't connect to server when VPN on

I recently purchased a VPN service (PIA). I can connect to login server but the game won't let me connect to the game server. It also gives me an error after it kicks me back to login screen. (Error 1017: Cannot login to the EverQuest server. You may need to re-run the Update Patch. Repeatedly Seeing this message indicates a loss of connectivity to the Patch Server. This is usually temporary).

However, when I turn VPN off it connects no problem. Any ideas how to fix this so I can play with VPN on?
