Multi Session VPN for slow VPN providers #18742

Open kravena opened 1 year ago

kravena commented 1 year ago

Suggestion

NordVPN allows for 6 simultaneous sessions, but typically maxes out at around 200mbps download per VPN Server.

Many FTTP providers offer 1000mbps download, but I'm not able to max out the connection due to NordVPN bandwidth limitations on individual servers.

If qBittorrent had a built-in OpenVPN client, and was able to open 5 sessions simultaneously and then load balance the torrent pieces across the sessions, it should be possible to max out downloads speeds, even where VPN providers can't accommodate 1000gbps against a single VPN server.

Use case

Asus Merlin can connect to 5 VPN servers using VPN Director, but cannot load balance the connections as each server would have a different client IP address, hence it's not possible to max out a 1gbps connection.

Having a built in ovpn client would be useful anyway, not having to route traffic through it just having an all in one package.
