Someone posted on a similar thread yesterday or the day about something that would fit the bill for you. I'll see if I can find it.

Off the top of my head, I think they sold a router, mostly pre-configured with ddwrt, that you plugged in your info for PrivateInternetAccess and used them as the VPN. Could be wrong though.

Edit: Here's what I was talking about: https://easyvpnrouter.com/. May or may not meet your needs

That's great! Good find, thanks.

The website mentions an interesting solution to the streaming media problem: "Keep your existing router and run both networks simultaneously. Connect to your Easy VPN Router when you need safety"

So basically I could have the performance-sensitive devices hook up to the existing router, then use Easy VPN as the main access point for everything else. That's probably a lot more maintainable than trying to choose what goes over the VPN dynamically.
