      My problem recently has been that I can no longer use PIA VPN to access netflix because of netflix blocking PIA's IP's.  I don't use VPN to avoid localization on Netflix so I don't care if I loose that ability I just want to be able get to netflix without shutting off my openVPN every time.
      So, is this possible?
      I read throught this link but it isn't exactly what I want to do, this seems to be routing some specific LAN IP's traffic through the VPN while sending all other computers traffic through the regular WAN. https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=72902.0
      What I want is to send all traffic from all computers through the VPN except traffic to Netflix.

        Im having the same problem. I just started see blocked messages yesterday (Error Code: S7111-1331-5059) to be exact. I have tried a Alias list to bypass but still cant seem to get it to work.

          You can do this in System > Routing > Routes. 
          Add a rule for the site you want to go to over the WAN by getting the correct IP Address using the below method:

          Get a Websites IP Addresses to exclude from VPN using the Terminal:
          host domain name      [to obtain IP Address]
          whois ip address
          use the CIDR ip address range (69.53.224.0/19)        [This is the IP I have set for Netflix]

          On the rule you create, set the Gateway to WAN.
