      Hi,

      I have been trying to only pass data from 2 devices on my network through the VPN connection.
      My VPN is PIA but I followed this guide: https://www.expressvpn.com/support/vpn-setup/pfsense-with-expressvpn-openvpn/
      except the part it says set network in alias, I set Host to be able to input individual ips.

      Now, the issue is that for some reason all my traffic is passed through the VPN, instead of just the IPs, I set in the Alias.
      Im sort of pulling my hair now cause I have spent more than a few days trying to figure out what is going on!

      So basically alll my traffic goes through the VPN getway no matter if there is a rule set or not

      I would appreciate any help or suggestion!

      Many thanks

        Do you have "Don't pull routes" checked on you OpenVPN config for PIA?

            Sasansgh, if I were in your place, I would have contacted PIA's customer support team and ask them the resolution of my query, because they would be in a better position to resolve your query.
