Hi there! This is my first post; apologies in advance for any breaches of forum protocol, and thanks in advance for your help!
Environment:
I'm running this via docker-compose on a vanilla Ubuntu 18.04 VM running under Proxmox.
Kudos:
This worked! Really appreciate @binhex's work on this + many of you for already having answered so many of the questions that came up during setup.
Question 1: Why is my bandwidth inside the container maxing out at ~40Mbps?
I have a 1Gb asymmetrical internet connection at home, and routinely get speeds of 300Mbps+ through my VPN provider (Torguard). Inside this container, however, I can't seem to get speeds over 40Mbps (as tested via speedtest-cli and observed in deluge). I've tried several different Torguard nodes and even a few on my friend's PIA account. They all max out at 30-40Mbps within the docker container, even though I can get 150-400Mbps (via the same nodes) on my mac.
Might this be a symptom of my screwing up a config? Or is there a common bottleneck that I should know about?
Question 2: Once I have this basic setup working, what (if any) additional config do I need to set up through my VPN provider?
It's clear that VPN port forwarding is important for torrent performance. Is that all handled automagically through the openvpn configs, or do I need to manually set it up? If the latter, has anyone written a good guide/reference for the process?
Thanks again!
