ASUS Dual WAN - Direct Youtube?

[David Porter]

Hi everyone

I have a dual WAN setup, and I want to tunnel all Youtube traffic through my primary WAN.

I've found a list of Youtube IP ranges, and I've applied them to my Dual WAN setup like the following (Asus DSL-AC68U)

However Youtube still tries to connect via my Secondary WAN.

An important note- the IP directed to use the Secondary WAN is also the device I want to use Youtube on the Primary WAN. I put the Youtube IP routing above in the list in hope of this being a priority.

Any help would be great

Thanks

I know how to do this on smb class router because they have a way to make certain applications 'stick' to a particular wan/lan/etc.

Besides the routing table, is there anything like this in the Asus?

 

[David Porter]

Not from what I can see. Only other functionality I'm aware of is setting iptables via SSH/Telnet.

So there's no way to 'bind' traffic to one wan or the other?

 

[David Porter]

I can bind IP addresses to a particular WAN.

That's why Im here- to find out if there is a way to bind youtube traffic to a particular WAN.

If I had the answer I wouldn't be asking

Besides attempting to bind the IP addresses the way you did, I don't think it will be possible.

Can you put in the dns names or does it have to be IP addresses?

 

[David Porter]

Hmm good question. All instructions show IP addresses but I will try DNS names

I'm actually surprised it isn't working just the way you have it if your screenshot is what I think it is.
