PIA "port is closed" #66

Closed ghost closed 6 years ago

ghost commented 6 years ago

The docker works perfectly, however in the ruTorrent client there's an error at the bottom that says "port is closed". This seems like an issue with the listening port not being open through the VPN, however it could be something else. Is this normal behaviour, or am I doing something wrong? I can see that on the description page, airVPN users are supposed to open ports themselves. Is there any procedure to go through for privateinternetaccess users, or is everything already working correctly?

Regards.

I had to change my VPN location to one of the location specified on this page: https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/helpdesk/kb/articles/how-do-i-enable-port-forwarding-on-my-vpn

Then it worked.
