Where do you have your VPN setup? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I've moved my Plex server to Truenas Scale, and I'm about to get Sonarr/Radarr/Ombi/etc setup, but first I need to get VPN going. Truenas Scale uses OpenVPN and my current VPN service is ExpressVPN (which I've been very happy with). Setting up ExpressVPN with Truenas has proven challenging because of certificate import issues.

Previously I've always run ExpressVPN locally. Do you think it's a good idea just to put it on my router (PfSense) and call it a day? They do provide specific instructions to set it up on that specific router OS. I imagine I could always use a custom route to bypass it if needed (ie local sports on Fubo TV).

Depending on your routers capabilities. I have my VPN on my router and chose which device gets behind it or not. Works like a charm. If you want to access your server from outside your local network, you have to see if express vpn offers port forwarding.

It doesn't, so I use OpenVPN ony DSM when I remote connect, and use ExpressVPN on the devices that need it for anonymousness.
