<![CDATA[VPN masking]]>Hi all,
Is it possible to have a VPN on pfsense to mask your WAN IP so you can make it appear that you are in a different country, i know you can download apps for mobile devices but I was wondering if it was possible on pfsense for the whole network or a Vlan on the network.
I know someone who was able to buy a rotuer that did this but want to stick with pfsense if possable.

Just remember to enable don't pull routes otherwise the default gateway for everything becomes the OpenVPN gateway.

The bandwidth you can push can vary by provider so if you have a relatively high bandwidth WAN and want to push all traffic over the VPN you should investigate that.

Some providers support Wireguard now which gives you more options.

Yes, that's possible with any VPN. And since pfSense is a router you can also route only specific source IPs over the VPN using policy routing rules.
