I tried pirating a game on my server earlier, but it was stuck at stalling, when 1337x says it’s got about 100 seeders. I pinged a site from my qbittorrent container and it worked, so it has internet, but it’s just not torrenting.

I also tried this with a random movie and it showed the same issue as well. The torrents I’m seeding also have 0 seeds/peers, which is what the attached image shows.

Using Mullvad with a gluetun + qbittorrent container combo btw

Oh did they remove it today? I’ve been able to torrent with it for a bit

Yup it’s gone. Personally switched to TorGuard but still sad that Mullvad is gone because its a much better service.

Apparently Mullvad took away port forwarding today, what vpn should I switch to?

Personally tried gluetun + AirVPN and having success.

I choose AirVPN mainly because I am cheap person, it give me port forwarding and IPv6 connectivity. (To use IPv6 with gluetun requires some tweaking)

Proton VPN has port forwarding. Maybe try that one

Wait mozzila still has port forwarding?! They run on mullvads servers last I knew https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2020/07/we-test-mozillas-new-wireguard-based-5-mo-vpn-service/

Same thing was happening to me but mine kept saying stalled at 100 and refused to seed. I ended up just rebooting the torrentbox and it fixed. Qbittorrent 4.4.1 and nordvpn

Windscribe is what I use, works well
