Hello, I just downloaded BiglyBt after seeing it on this community. I found some files that I want to download. I got a 30% through and now its completely stalled. It seems it lost connection with all peers/seeds. I’ve tried restarting the program and computer. Still unable to reconnect. Could I get some help on how to restart the torrent and complete it? Thanks!
You can double-check but AFAIK that VPN service does not offer port forwarding. It’ll probably be even slower than your current VPN service since it’s not really meant for torrenting or heavy usage.
Search around for earlier posts on VPNs with port forwarding e.g.

Ahh unfortunate. It looks like there was a free vpn service posted today that seems reliable. Maybe I’ll look into that. Edit: it was RiseupVPN
