Route traffic for certain domains over WAN instead of VPN not working
-
I set up an ExpressVPN Gateway to route everything over VPN which is working. Unfortunately a few domains don't play nicely with shared IPs and will frequently prompt me for captchas, or simply not load.
To workaround this I created a firewall alias grouping together such domains:
I then added a firewall rule to my LAN interface to have traffic destined for the domains to use the WAN interface instead of the ExpressVPN one:
What's interesting is that the rule right below it, Networks_to_Bypass_VPN, works just fine. I've added an explicit ip address to that alias and it is properly routed through WAN. This only fails when I try to specify domains like www.netflix.com etc...

Hmm... should I have asked this question in a different category or does my question just make no sense? Seriously not sure what's wrong with my configuration. Has anyone else here managed to route traffic through different WANs based on destination domain?
