One of the devices is my QNAP NAS which is hard wired on my 3200. On the NAS is my Plex Media Server. I do not have the NAS uniquely defined to the router in any unique way, maybe it should be? The NAS and all devices route via my OpenNetVPN client (ExpressVPN). The problem is that other devices with Plex players all route over the internet and through the VPN to get back to the PMS. What do I do to route them locally and keep all the PMS traffic on the LAN.
Thanks. _________________ Linksys WRT3200ACM

I set up QNAP & PLEX many years ago following instructions found somewhere on the Plex website and I found this in Additional Dnsmasq Options.
Code:
# added below to allow PLEX to DNS rebinding to allow secure connections over local network (following Plex documentation here)
rebind-domain-ok=/plex.direct/
