Custom VPN Provider (!=PIA) Results in No Incoming Port Assignment #336

Closed billrweber closed 1 year ago

billrweber commented 1 year ago

Using ProtonVPN as my VPN provider and getting slow up/down. I think it's because I'm leeching unintentionally.

What I'm seeing is potentially useful, maybe not. But the log suggests that since this isn't PIA that it isn't handling incoming port requests. I'm using protonvpn and the entries I've put into the openvpn folder in the config allow for incoming ports. Here is the log excerpt that I'm flagging.

2022-11-01 11:51:32,283 DEBG 'start-script' stdout output: [info] Successfully retrieved external IP address 185.159.157.45 [info] Application does not require port forwarding or VPN provider is != pia, skipping incoming port assignment

So three questions.

  1. Am I to assume that this error message indicates that the container is not taking advantage of and configuring Deluge to accept a specified incoming port?
  2. Am I to assume that such functionality is limited to PIA? If so, is there a workaround when using !=PIA as a provider?
    If so, can anyone point out that information?
  3. Is there anything else obviously wrong in this configuration that would result in reduced speed?
    I would love to be a productive partner, but this feels like I don't have the right building blocks to make that happen.

As always, your help is very much appreciated.

Am I to assume that this error message indicates that the container is not taking advantage of and configuring Deluge to accept a specified incoming port? correct, dynamic incoming port assignment is only done for PIA.

Am I to assume that such functionality is limited to PIA? If so, is there a workaround when using !=PIA as a provider? If so, can anyone point out that information? correct PIA only, the workaround is to find out how to get yourself an incoming port from your VPN provider and then manually configure deluge to use it.

Is there anything else obviously wrong in this configuration that would result in reduced speed? speed can be affected by a number of things, see Q6 :- https://github.com/binhex/documentation/blob/master/docker/faq/vpn.md

Thank you for the response. I appreciate that the logging details provided by the app are useful in identifying the issue. From my perspective, it is worth it to widen the support to include additional vpn providers, but I'm not entirely certain I understand the problem space.

  1. Is it the case that there is a script within the container that initiatlizes the VPN and is able to identify the port provided by PIA to push into Deluge?

  2. Is there anything specific about the PIA client that isn't present in the OpenVPN client, or is it just different. What I'm getting at here is to ask if this has been tried and it was deemed too difficult, or if it is just on some future unidentified roadmap?

  1. yes
  2. So in order to dynamically assign a incoming port for pia you need to jump through several hoops, luckily for pia users these hoops are all jumped through for you via my built in scripts - see 1.

Each vpn provider maybe (and most of the time is) different in the methods required to assign an incoming port, for example mullvad you do it through the web ui, once the port is assigned its static and its then simply a case of configuring the app to use the port.

At this time i dont have the time or inclination to try to automate incoming port assignment for every vpn provider out there (there are hundreds), so if you want an easy life then go pia, otherwise go custom and then figure out how to assign a incoming port.

Sadly looking at the ProtonVPN docs it looks like the only way to assign a incoming port is via the app, so if that is the only method then its going to be rough going :-( https://protonvpn.com/support/port-forwarding/#:~:text=Open%20the%20app%20and%20go,forwarding%20shortcut%20(see%20below).
