A lot of ports are taken (you can see huge splotches of red on the port map they have) but it will find you one if you just click Add without entering any information. You have to assign the port to your account here at AirVPN (assuming it's available). Manually assigning a port on Transmission is not enough to enable port forwarding. If anyone has advice or would be able to guide me towards a solution, that would be fantastic! I can provide more information if necessary. I'm used to things "just working," so I have no real understanding of how to fix this problem. I tried to connect to a server in Germany, and the torrent located 5 peers, but the download would start and then instantly drop to 0.0kb/s. Transmission listed the port as being open, but no peers were found as well.
I briefly read about Port Forwarding (I find this topic confusing for some reason) and manually entered a port number. Afterwards, I checked the preferences in Transmission and noticed that it listed the port as being closed. I tried using the AirVPN client Eddie and had the same result. When I connected to Tunnelblick using the Netherland server option, peers would not appear and the download would not start. Recently, I have run into issues using Transmission and the AirVPN service.
I would connect to one of the Netherland servers through the Tunnelblick Client and get good speeds overall. Previously, I never had any issues downloading torrents through Transmission. I've been using AirVPN for a few years now. Please excuse this post if a question similar to this has been answered previously. I don't have much of an understanding (if any at all) of the technical aspects VPNs, port forwarding, etc.
