I've just purchased an Asus RT AC87u and installed the latest Merlin firmaware. I've setup the VPN client on the router and I need my IPTV boxes to bypass the VPN. How can I do this?
--Problem Solved. I played around with some settings.
1- In the router go to VPN,
2- Go to OpenVPN Clients Tab,
3- Find "Advanced Settings"
4- Set "Redirect Internet Traffic" to Policy Rules
5- Below that you'll see "Rules for routing client traffic through the tunnel". Under Source IP I chose my IPTV box's IP, left the "Destination IP" empty, set the "Iface" to Wan and clicked add and Apply. That's it. Easy.
6- I chose to add all of my IPtv boxes, laptops and smartphones here and chose whichever Iface, Wan or VPN to suit my needs.
There's also a kill switch here if you set "Block routed clients if tunnel goes down" to Yes. I've tested it and it works.
