LAN IP ranges for access rules vs. LAN IP ranges for brandwith restrictions

[wotgorilla 1]

Hello all,

I have a second residence that has its own LAN and is connected to my main residence's LAN through OpenVPN at the gateway level. That is, no single device on the LANs needs to connect to the VPN individually. Both residences are connected to their respective ISPs through reasonably fast connections (I can watch Prime Video, Pluto TV, etc. without interruption), but when I include the VPN IP address pool to the "LAN networks" list in Emby, some movies that I play on Emby (I guess the ones with better quality) are interrupted all the time and, as a result, are unwatchable. I assume that the network link through both ISPs an the VPN is too slow for the movies to play at their nominal quality. However, they play fine after I remove the VPN IP address pool from the "LAN networks" list, presumably because transcoding is then enabled. My problem is that I would still like Emby to recognize my VPN IP addresses as "trusted" to relax some restrictions, such as the fact that I need to enter the password every time I log in. In other words, I want Emby to recognize my second residence as home, just a "slower" home. But for Emby there is only one kind of "LAN" that covers both security and speed considerations. Is there a way to achieve my goal?

Thank you in advance for your help.
