Does using a VPN interfere with Plex Media Server?

Hi, I use a VPN and want to ensure that it doesn’t screw up my newly installed PMS. If I’m not logged into my account will I be safe or the fact it runs in the background still going to cause issues for me? Any setting(s) I should configure before launching my VPN again? Thanks for any help, still lots to learn with this service.

You will need a VPN with split tunneling, app exceptions works fine for me.

You’re perfectly allowed to discuss how a VPN will interfere with your PMS. That being said… please refrain from discussing this as a means to hide illegal downloading of media.

No problem Tom, I didn’t mention anything about illegal but I guess that would be assumed. I just made the edit.
