I want to browse the internet as if I’m in a different country. But I want everything else to not go through the VPN.
I’ve tried using mullvad and split tunnelling but excluding every single thing I use outside of a browser is a chore and often impossible/really difficult.
Would prefer not to use a VM. I just want my chrome window (or other browser) to send all traffic through VPN, whilst the rest of my computer is normal.
Is there a way to do this with mullvad? Or do I have to use a different VPN? What other VPNs are good for this purpose if so?
ProtonVPN has a browser extension that only routes browser traffic through their VPN. Their VPN client also lets you selectively include apps to go through the VPN (instead of purely exclusion, like Mullvad). PIA has a browser extension as well.
Brave has a built-in VPN, but you have to use the Brave browser.
The Mullvad vpn CLIENT does not support such a scenario, you will have to use a different vpn client.
For example WireSock can do this. And you will need to manually generate wireguard config files for your account on the official Mullvad website to use the vpn with a non-mullvad vpn client.
