Whitelist Amazon AWS servers for those using VPN gateway (Netflix and others)
-
Thanks for this, man. I've been killing myself trying to find a list of hostnames to build a bypass like I did for hulu. It worked with a list 24 hostnames, but I could never find a comprehensive list for netflix.

Thank you for this! I am still a little confused… I don't currently have PIA because I had to cancel it because of Netflix. But how does this work? The way I had it set up before was with this guide " https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/forum/discussion/18111/openvpn-step-by-step-setup-for-pfsense-firewall-router-with-video ". Would this still work? Isn't it just routing everything from the WAN to the VPN?
Thanks,

knight26: Glad I could help!!
maxamus456: The link you provided is the same setup I followed initially when I first got everything configured. It's important to follow the instructions to the T if you want to be sure that you have it configured properly, without a chance of "leakage". After you've got your VPN configured properly as a gateway, you would then disable your default LAN rule, and configure a new one while specifying the VPN gateway (in advanced options at the bottom) under the new (VPN) Allow-All rule. You can then work on white-listing services. In the case of this post, Amazon AWS services along with Netflix. If you need further help, hop on over to the Reddit X-Post, I'm a bit more active there than I am here.

Thanks much for making the list! FQDNs weren't going to cut it this time like it would with something like Hulu, saved me a ton of time.

I've been trying for days and still can't get this to work. So far I have 500+ CIDR entries from pfblocker and still didn't work. Anyone have any idea?

Update:
Can't get this to work, at least Canada, there's seem to be more and more AS # added to their content delivery. I've found these so far but not sure if it's 100% from netflix.
AS14618
AS2906
AS209
AS16509
AS4804Still can't stream. This is ridiculous, I think I will cancel Netflix at this point because I'm going over the top just to protect my privacy. pfblocker populated 17825 CIDR entires for this and still can't stream.

Sorry to bump this up again but I've been having issues and can't seem to whitelist Netflix effectively. I've loaded the latest AWS and Netflix lists I can find from the original Reddit thread but no dice. Am I missing something?

if you are in Canada, specifically on Bell Aliant you also need to allow the following
