Visit sites like youtube without VPN

[ZerGo0 1]

Hello guys,

 

is there any way to somehow connect to a site like Youtube, PayPal without the VPN and of course without to turn it off manually? I guess routeing would work but most sites these days have many different IP addresses and I don't know how to do it so maybe someone here knows?

 

Regards

Hello!

 

You could run a VM. The host could stay connected to the VPN, while the guest could browse freely. Then you just restore the snapshot, upon exit

ZerGo0, you can use ipset to manipulate list of ip-s, but it is rather tedious.

There are a number of ways to "split traffic" here, if you are using Windows:

The idea there is to only use the VPN for the things you need it for, rather than the other way around. But the techniques can be use with either the VPN or native IP interface as the default route. Scan the whole thing. Not all of the information is in the original guide.

 

You may find ForceBindIP or SQUID helpful.

Using SQUID is discussed here:

If you are using Linux, the basic approaches still apply, except that you need to use "source address routing". See these posts:

https://airvpn.org/topic/14158-question-run-airvpn-as-non-primary-network-adapter/?p=27398

 

And SQUID should be available as a package for your Linux distribution if you want to go that way.

Hello!

This will of course not work if the VM is attached to the host via NAT. To make this solution effective for the purpose make sure to bridge the VM.

 

Kind regards
