I have my plex setup with port forwarding, and when my VPN is off it works perfect, Remote Access never disconnects, but when I enable my VPN (Open VPN) it will work for awhile, sometimes a few hours, and then disconnects, and once it disconnects if I reconnect it just disconnects again immediately. I followed a guide that was supposed to add lines to the OpenVPN config file to allow it to bypass the VPN, I added these lines to the OpenVPN config;
#Plex IPs
route 255.255.255.255 192.168.xxx.116
#plex.tv

I found those IPs by using the “nslookup” in command line(I removed parts of each of the ips for privacy). I’m not sure what I’m missing or what else to try in order to make running the VPN not interrupt Remote access at all. Any insight would be great!
