Enable router based usage of "selective" OPENVPN online services.
ee Have purchased the ORBI. It appears that it has a VPN feature but requires client apps to be run (Windows/Android/IOS). Some devices/clients may not be able to run such VPN apps. Preferably enable a router based OPENVPN feature that allows users to use online VPN services like HMA, ExpressVPN, Ivacy or others AND allow the VPN feature to be used by only those clients that want it while allowing other devices/clients to bypass the VPN and have normal unencrypted communication. This would seem to be a VERY desirable feature that I feel certain many users would want to to see implemented. Why load apps or slow down performance for those that don't need VPN? This "gateway"/split tunnel feature could be a major selling point for many users. Just my .02 cents.
