Is there a consumer router that supports split tunneling?

I want to have 1 router connected to a VPN continuously. However, only some traffic should be routed to that VPN server. The rest should be routed out the Internet directly bypassing the VPN server. Is this possible with any consumer routers?

Every router I have ever worked with has given you the ability to configure static routes that override the default. I don't see why any VPN router would behave any differently.

If it's a VPN configured from hardware device to hardware device, this is easy. You just set up static routes in the routing tables. Everything to the network on the other end of the VPN > routed to the VPN interface. Everything else > default route out the WAN.

If we're talking software VPN on your workstation connecting to, say, your company provided VPN, this is something they need to enable on their end.
