I already had a cyberghost sub, but decided to try to switch to something better for seeding.

I have tested ProtonVPN and PIA, but ended up refunding PIA as the port forwarding didn’t work once. ProtonVPN has worked maybe 5% of the time, and will likely be refunded as well.

Is there such a thing as a VPN that can consistently forward ports? I’m considering trying AirVPN next, but am hoping someone could confirm whether it works or not first. I’m also open to any other recommendations.

Thank you!

    I tried a couple of others and they both worked fine, I just stuck with openvpn. Eddie was the only one I had trouble with.

    Haven’t tried wireguard so can’t comment on that but I suspect it will work just fine.

      Think wireguard and openVPN are two opposing protocols, wireguard being newer, faster, and apparently less reliable

        I’m using AirVPN with wireguard since a few months now and everything works perfectly, including port forwarding. Can 100% recommend!
