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've had a great experience with ovpn after Mullvad shut down port forwarding. You get 7 ports per account and the server I use is very fast. You can also purchase a public IPv4 with all ports open if you like.

Before ovpn I tried AirVPN. It's a great service, but their servers are too busy/slow if you need a lot of bandwidth.
