Thanks you very much for the help. I'm not a network specialist, but i learn something about it.
When i read the first time of x3mRouting and Diversion, i think "oh no that's too high for me". A few days later everything works.
Thank you
 
The problem for my is Netflix, i connect to a german VPN server, the IP correctly but the DNS is not from germany (Cloudflare is from switzerland) and so i can‘t watch Netflix.
When i use the same ovpn-File directly on my iPad (with OpenVPN App) then i have the right DNS and i can watch Netflix on this ovpn-File will not works on the router and i don‘t understand why.

I am also using NordVPN and the setup with Netflix was very simple for me. Don’t enter any DNS under WAN. Configure VPN Clint DNS to Restricted and Routing policy to All. I run Diversion and Skynet without issues.
 
Hello
In my current configuration i still miss one thing and although i have registered on the router under LAN the domain name "home.lan" and over this domain i access in my local network on the devices (for example, nas.home.lan).
However, some of my devices are running over a VPN connection (for example my iPad is running on a VPN connection configured on the router). If i call on the iPad nas.home.lan, it comes to an error, when i call the Nas directly over the IP address, then it works. Is there any way that the devices that run thru VPN also know the local domain and so can access to the devices and not over the IP number?
Many thanks for the help
 
Hello
Is my requirement not possible? Is it so that a device that use a VPN connection can't resolve local domain. My idea was i can install on my Nas a DNS server and the on the router under LAN - DHCP server i can set the local DNS server (IP from the Nas), but i don't know when i do that, that i can use this local DNS with a device that use a active VPN connection from the router.
