VPN users question

[xavier242]

Question for VPN users here who are able to seed on TTD through their VPN:
What VPN provider are you using?

I have yet to find one that is not firewalled with TTD's tracker and I'd like to find out why and fix it. I currently have AirVPN. I tried IVPN but same issue.

Did you have to configure a forwarded port or 2? I did, just like I do for other sites, but it doesn't work here.

No need to be skittish about telling your VPN provider. Anyone who downloads a torrent you are seeding can already see your VPN IP, connect the dots and determine what VPN provider you use, but most providers don't log anything useful to outsiders.

IVPN changed something in their software. In the past seeding via TTD and IVPN wasn't possible. I can now seed and no longer show as firewalled. I'm using the OpenVPN option.

AirVPN won't seed with TTD only. I've tried on 4 different boxes, 2 physical and 2 VMware using Windows 7 and XP. AirVPN seeds ok with other torrent trackers, SS, and other P2P apps.

This is interesting as it shows the VPN provider can break a torrent connection with some unknown issue.
