Hello all,

I am running fedora with mullvad (wireguard) straight from the network settings with a configuration file.

According to https://mullvad.net/en/check everything is fine but I want to know if I am set for torrenting now that they have removed port forwarding and I cannot bind qbittorrent to the vpn.

Should I adjust anything or am I set? What was the benefit of port forwarding?

I use PIA, and have for years as well. My only complaint is they semi-promised they'd have a WireGuard config file available years ago, and we're still waiting.

But as long as you can run their client, you can utilize WG, and it's still the cheapest option that offers no logs, split tunneling, port forwarding.
