To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Connect to server in AmneziaWG

Screenshots

Desktop (please complete the following information):

OS: Windows 10.0.19045
Version 1.0.2
Go version 1.22.12

Additional context
For no reason in task manager i see heavy load on wireguard network, around 500mbit/s (i can't say what app that does, cause in task list i see internet load only from system and is around 0.1mb/s).
I don't really need vpn on hotspot, i just need direct link to my laptop and access to internet (cause router is too far from my room, and it's not capable to 300mbit+ links).
Disabling only hotspot and not doing anything other brings all to normal work, and same when i disable connect to wg server, but when i connected to wg server and using hotspot, i can connect to hotspot and i have access to laptop, but i don't have internet on laptop, on connected devices in any situation i have internet access.
