What vpn do you recommend for torrenting, especially one that’s good at hiding ip address? What service do you recommend with them plus, basic, premium, etc…
Airvpn. It supports port forwarding
I’ve used PIA for 3 years now and it’s fast and reliable. No complaints
I love Proton VPN. Both for privacy and torrenting
I’ve been using PIA. Not the fastest or the prettiest but it works
PIA or AirVPN
I love PIA
I get a lot of flack for saying this but I’ve had great luck with using Private Internet Access… I am sure IPvanish is a great option too.
Recently looked into this too… PÍA was the most recommended
ProtonVPN hands down.
Has built in ad/malware/tracker blockers you can toggle,
Has a kill switch you can toggle
Has a FUCK TON of servers with lots optimized for encrypted p2p traffic
Also port forwarding.
Has everything you need to torrent safely and then forget it’s running in the background.
I downloaded 1.7TB and uploaded 3.4TB last month with zero issues.
Windscribe, they support port forwarding free of charge where you just have to request a port every 7 days or you can buy a datacentre IP for $24/year.
I saw ExpressVPN. No issues so far
Celo VPN $2.7 p/m reddit deal. Support port forwarding but only on their OpenVPN servers. Decent enough for the price.
I feel like I keep seeing this question pop up every few weeks and there’s never really a definitive winner. No shade throwing from me, I’m just also in the stage of figuring out the route I want to go.
That said, I think the way everyone phrases the question guarantees the repetition of answers without much distinction. This is just a realization I had while reading the same answers I read last week and the weeks before… so my suggestion is that maybe we rephrase the question. Something like:
What are the most important qualifications to look for in a VPN solution focused on torrenting?
I think for both port forwarding and binding your VPN with your torrent client the two options you have are AirVPN and Proton VPN (right?) of which Proton is faster but changes ports all the time
I was thinking of having a docker container with tailgate or wireguard, where my packets are forwarded to it and then it connects to the internet. Is it a good idea as a solution for being safe from movie torrents, that’s all
The Epic Privacy Browser has an integrated free VPN that works fine for getting torrents.
OVPN has been really good for me!
No problems with airvpn. You will need an vpn with port forward to seed files like this one.
It aint good for streaming services, just for torrenting.
I personally use “IPvanish” have for years and I have 0 complaints - it was t until a few months ago it got split tunneling - but as for actual hiding, it’s been great for me - others may have complaints, but I don’t - and as for price, every few months they have offers, I got 2 years for 90$
Anyone use NordVPN for torrenting?
