That looks like a strange setting but probably doesn't hurt.
I'm not sure I understand myself how this setting is involved, but it is
actually required: if I remove it I'm back at the starting point with
the failed NCSI check.
I also captured network traffic to investigate, and with the gateway
setup I can see a successful DNS query to the VPN DNS (not my gateway)
for dns.msftncsi.com, while without it I see no trace of this query.
DNSSec would put an end to this sort of snooping .. lol
