VPN Bypass for Plex Media Server
Go to top
It does just as its name implies. This application allows your Windows Plex Media Server to connect to plex.tv despite having a VPN running on the same machine.
Included in the download is an exe version and a bat version of the application; the exe is the same as the bat except it runs invisibly. For best results, use windows task scheduler to launch the exe (with highest privileges) as often as you’d like.
This will ensure that even if the Plex IP address changes, your setup will automatically route it past your VPN. A list of routed IPs will be saved here: %userprofile%\AppData\Local\Plex Media Server\PermittedPlexIPs.txt

Note: you will still need to forward traffic from port 32400 on your router to your Plex Media Server as is required even for machines not using a VPN.
v6 of the script released on June 1, 2016: Changed how the exe is packaged so as to not run from the temp folder and should therefore not cause problems for folks using Kaspersky or other anti-viruses that similarly block services launched from the temp folder.
