      I am trying to do a little research before I receive my equipment to run pfSense. I am currently overseas and use PIA on a netgear router for specific traffic (Netflix/Amazon Prime and other traffic) and use the my modem/router for all other traffic. Is it possible to configure pfSense to route specific traffic through the VPN and other traffic around it? Like for instance PS4/Xbox traffic straight through, but all traffic from my Synology or desktop PC through the VPN? Or would I be better off continuing to use the netgear router behind the pfSense machine strictly for the VPN traffic? I have no intentions of running a VPN server on my network, just a client in order to secure specific traffic.

      Thank you

          Perfect thank you, not sure why that didn't come up when I did a search for PIA.
