I'm a bit confused. Using mullvad and I'm still seeding fine.
Could anyone explain why I need portforwarding?
Using mullvad wireguard and qbittorrent
Seeding with ~1Mbit right now, which is normal for my connection
Edit: thought soulseek is some torrent slang or client, I'm an idiot ^^
OP wants to use Soulseek which is P2P and requires port forwarding.
The post doesn't mention seeding or torrenting whatsoever mate
Oh God I'm an idiot. Thanks
We are all idiots on this blessed day
you don't really have a high bandwidth so I am not surprised that it makes no difference. For me port forwarding is the difference between seeding at 16MB/s vs 3/4MB/s
Does it only take affect seeding? I'm behind NAT with no port forwarding and often download at 80-110 MB/s (megabytes, not megabits).
it should affect downloading as well. It increases the number of peers able to connect to you for data exchange in both directions
