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!

    as far as I could tell/search in 15 minutes, everyone was mad when they got bought by kape, but not seeing any evidence of decline in services by PIA. I have been using them for 4 years without a single issue.

    that said - I am going to buy into the Proton package for drive & email, which gives me VPN “for free”. meaning I was going to switch to ProtonVPN anyway, but from a consolidation/cost savings standpoint.

      It’s not just about seeing a decline in service. It’s about the potential for the owners to betray your privacy for the highest bidder at any given point
