Broken OpenVPN: 100% packet loss when I connected to any VPN server

Hello!
I think the problem is in my system. I do not remember when it appeared - perhaps after upgrade 1-2 weeks ago.
The essence of the problem: connect to the VPN server succeeds, but the packets do not go through the tunnel. I lose my connection to the Internet, and I can only make a ping to the VPN server. Ping the other addresses does not work - 100% packet loss. Problem is not in DNS. Connect by openvpn command or with NetworkManager - does not matter. The problem is not on the server side (I tested different servers, and on other computer everything works).
I do not know where and what logs are available. Output of "ip route" without a VPN:

default via 192.168.100.1 dev wlp3s0b1  metric 303
192.168.100.0/24 dev wlp3s0b1  proto kernel  scope link  src 192.168.100.7  metric 303

and with VPN:

default via 10.8.0.9 dev tun0  proto static  metric 50
default via 192.168.100.1 dev wlp3s0b1  proto static  metric 600
10.8.0.1 via 10.8.0.9 dev tun0  proto static  metric 50
10.8.0.9 dev tun0  proto kernel  scope link  src 10.8.0.10
10.8.0.10 dev tun0  proto kernel  scope link  src 10.8.0.10  metric 50
X.X.X.X via 192.168.100.1 dev wlp3s0b1  proto static  metric 600
192.168.100.0/24 dev wlp3s0b1  proto kernel  scope link  src 192.168.100.7  metric 600

when X.X.X.X - is address of VPN server.

I really hope on help from community, because I have no idea how to solve the problem. Sorry for my bad English and inexperience.

Check the MTU of the connection, maybe you need to reduce the value.
