Hello,

So I'm trying to figure out where the Transmission listening port is being blocked. I have already ruled out the transmission jail. I have Transmission plugin running on 192.168.1.28. listening on port 65392. On the VPN, I opened up the transmission listening port. I'm using a AirVPN (uses OpenVPN) which is set up on my Asus w/Merlin router. Now according to this, https://airvpn.org/faq/p2p/ they say not to forward the port on the router which I can't really figure out how it would work if I didn't open the port. Regardless I tried it both ways. My ISP is Comcast (unfortunately).

Is my ISP blocking the port? Even when I had the router forwarding the port, it didn't work but I want to make 100% sure of where the issue lies. All help will be very much appreciated.

Well it turns out it's the VPN itself itself that's still blocking the port. I shut the VPN off covering the server and all was fixed. Now I need to find what's wrong with the port forwarding in the VPN service.
