          I don't know if this is a perfect solution but it works.  This will help with Netflix but not with torrent traffic.

          After setting up the VPN to work, create this firewall rule and leave it on top.

          set to: Pass
          Interface: LAN
          Source:  Local ip address of what is using netflix
          Destination: any
          Gateway: your vpn

          This will make  only that device send all of its traffic through the vpn.  Remember you have to give it a static ip address in status-> dhcp leases  .  To prevent the rest of your network from being on that vpn, you have to set a kill switch rule under that.  I think this will work.

          set to: Block
          Interface: LAN
          Source:  LAN Address    <–-( exact words by the way)
          Destination: any
          Gateway: your vpn
