Hello!

I set up a VPN client (NordVPN) in my Asus router. It works fine, however it affects all internet traffic when I turn it on.

But how can I configure my ASUS router to only route the traffic of one specific local device (e.g. a mobile phone with a fixed local IP address) through that VPN and send all other traffic to my regular ISP?

I'm on Merlin firmware v384.19

Have a look in wiki: https://github.com/RMerl/asuswrt-merlin.ng/wiki/Policy-based-routing
 
Hey @octopus - thanks for this! It just helped me setup a similar configuration. Although, I'm probably going to dump my Asus setup for a new UniFi build... but that's still in the future. Thanks again!!!
