    That’s why you do it at your router or gateway and then set a route for the Jellyfin server through the VPN adapter. That way any device on your network will flow through the tunnel to the Jellyfin server including TVs

      Oh yes, the routers and gateways that most people have that are isp provided that may not actually have open VPN or wireguard support.

      Those ones?

      Also putting a VPN in someone else’s house so that all their Network traffic goes through your gateway is pretty damn extreme.

      Which again implies that you have a router that allows you to do so. It’s not always the case. For tech enthusiast people that’s the case. But not for everyone.

      I tried to do the same thing at first, but it was a pain, there were tons of issues.
