Adding 2nd AP to avoid OpenVPN

Is there a good guide to help me with adding a small AP to use for netflix that will skip my openvpn. currently all my traffic goes thru my PIA VPN but my netflix is blocked. Any help I appreciate.

Like using wifi hardware directly in pfSense?

Commonly this would be done by creating a 2nd SSID on your existing AP and bringing connections one that into pfSense on a VLAN. Your AP would need to support that though.

Oh, well if you have a default route that is via the VP{N then you need to add rules on this new interface that policy route via the WAN gateway.
You may also need to add DNS via that gateway and if PIA had you remove outbound NAT rules as a "kill switch" you will need to add a rule back.
