Asus RT-AX57 VPN for only some devices

[mr_planet]

Hello!

I've landed on this wonderful forum by searching information about merlin firmware and scripts. Unfortunately, the custom firmware is not available for my Asus RT-AX57.

I would like to setup a VPN service (let's say, NordVPN for example) as a client on my router, however this will make all traffic passing through the VPN tunnel.
What I need, instead, is to specify a list of devices that should be in full-tunnel mode with the VPN, while the other should go outside the VPN tunnel.

Do you know if this is possible with the stock firmware on Asus RT-AX57 or by scripts (if is possible to run them on top of this router)?

Thanks in advance!

RT-AX57 is on 386 base firmware. You need RT-AX58U/AX3000 or better with 388 base firmware and VPN Fusion.

Current RT-AX3000 V2 can do up to 100Mbps with NordVPN. For better speeds - RT-AX86U Pro, up to about 250Mbps.

Welcome to the forums @mr_planet.

The budget you have isn't sufficient for your expectations. I suggest one or two RT-AX88U Pros, instead.
