@Scimitar973 You cannot do that, all the major video providers use highly distributed networks and the data paths can literally change from one second to another. not only they may not use the same ip address but use different, random domains to serve content.
The only suggestion I can give you is to create a network for video-heavy devices and then route that via WAN1-

@Scimitar973 If you really want to go this route, it is not that is impossible, it is that requires maintenance and is very error prone and not something I'll recommend to do unless you have a qualified network engineer around.
You have to collect all ip address ranges that all the need providers make available add them to a IP group.. and most importantly, keep it updated. at least everyday.

Thanks, I was hoping it was something simpler... I'll put the units that use video services frequently in the Ip pool that are directed to WAN1 .... it's the fastest solution.
Thank you!
