Hello friends, as most people, I was getting together with my friends in a channel on Discord while playing a game together. But about a week ago, Discord got banned for an unknown reason in Turkey. I can connect from the browser with 1.1.1.1 DNS setting. Or if I activate my PrivateVpn with its Windows app, I can connect directly with the Discord app. And while having the Asus BE98 router, I can also add a Fusion VPN profile such as Wireguard, or L2TP with PrivateVPN settings and all good.
But I don't want my whole apps to connect to VPN because it's slowing down the pings and also the speed of my 1Gig internet. Connecting with just browser is not affecting the speed too much but then I can't use my shortcut keys on my Stream Deck which only works on the native Discord app. It doesn't control the browser. That's why I'm trying to find a way to just use the VPN with Discord app.
My VPN Service provider is PrivateVPN and they don't provide split tunneling feature.
What other option do I have?
I tried to use their Wireguard config file and created a new VPN. And in the allowed IPs, I put 162.159.128.0/19, 162.159.129.0/19, 162.159.130.0/19 assuming all the connections to these Discord ip ranges would go through VPN but unfortunately it doesn't work when I erase 0.0.0.0/0 and write those ips. I don't know why. Maybe discord has other ips too? Or maybe I'm doing something wrong. I wish there was an option to specifically select the app on the gui which would split tunnel the connections of the selected app via vpn.
I hope someone can suggest me some ideas. The worst case, I'll buy a new membership from another provider which will let me use split tunneling. But I dought if that's necessary while I have this great router with full of features. I guess I'm missing something but I don't know what it is.
Thank you very much in advance.
