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!

    Airvpn has been flawless for me even if they aren’t the fastest. Wireguard has been very stable with them, and they are very configurable on their web interface. Plus the staff is very very helpful if you need it. My Seedboxes are on 24/7 and I am not racing with them, everything is long term. I can still hit 50mbps upload but it is rare.

    Edit: I use to espouse PIA but they mad a bunch of changes and I couldn’t script requesting a port any more. With airvpn you choose what ports you want on the website, assign them to a profile, and when you connect with that profile the port is automatically forwarded to your IP… no need to request a port and your selectes ports never change which makes configuring your app a lot simpler.
