Hello,
I am currently under trial with Viscosity and I am trying to use it as a full time VPN client.
I need to use my PureVPN account for most of my web use. However, for certain websites I want to route them through my Local Area Network. I am trying to route the domain name and not the IP address to the websites. I have followed the instructions to set this up, however, I am unable to get my modems IP address when I goto whatismyipaddress.com ... Even though I have added this as a route.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

Hi blanket204,
Unfortunately routing websites can be highly complex if the website uses multiple IP addresses and/or domains. It's highly likely the website your trying to route is using more than one IP address. You'll need to route all IP addresses (or subnets) that the website uses.
This is becoming more common these days as website adopt CDN proxy networks which aim to boost website performance and protect against DDoS attacks. For example, if the website is using a CDN network it'll probably have a different IP address based on where you're connecting to it from.
