Hello,

I am using qbittorrent for torrenting and my ISP has refused to open up firewall because of fucking "security" reasons. however I can still seed the torrent how is that possible? I mean all the incoming connections should be blocked right? isn't it how firewall works?

no they have firewall enabled on their side so even if I use my own router it won't do much.

That sounds weird and super invasive...where is this?

[–] baggins@lemmy.ca 22 points 5 months ago (6 children)

They're probably just using CGNAT.

It's definitely not CGNAT. I have tested it using traceroute.
