To whom it may yoho:

So I’ve got a linux server with Docker installed a a container with Deluge in it. I have 98 torrents currently in Active or Seeding status. My download and upload speeds are set according to my calculated rates for my speed test. Ports are set for incoming connections, that port is included in the Docker container config, allowed through the firewall on the server itself and forwarding set up on my router. I have 3 private trackers I’m testing with those 98 torrents and the torrents are a mix of high seeding demand torrents and just whatever I had sitting around. The only torrent out of 98 that are uploading anything is the Ubuntu torrent I’ve been using to see if it could be the private trackers.

Speed test:

Download speed is 347Mbps Upload speed is 23Mbps

DNS settings are set to use 75.75.75.75 and 76.76.76.76 and 8.8.8.8 on my router. My server is set to use the router as the DNS.

The 63430 port I’m using has been confirmed as open from external port checkers.

I have tried using qbitorrent on a separate machine and have been running into the same problems so it sounds like it’s a network-wide issue.

I am not behind a VPN (yet… though it sounds like it could be a requirement)

This is my home network and I own the Gateway so any ISP shenanigans would be from outside the home.

Does anyone have any suggestions? And is this the right place to ask?

Thank you in advance! I’m running out of hair to tear out!

Way late edit: In case anyone finds this in the future, my permissions were set incorrectly. The user that was running the torrent app didn’t have folder access…

    Docker ports are 1:1 mapped. 63430:63430. I’ve mapped all the ports 1:1, added them to the firewall for tcp and udp on the device AND port forwarded them through the modem.

    Separately, I’m also getting 0 upload on other devices that aren’t docker containers. Seems like my ISP is just blocking all upload traffic. I see peers connect and disconnect.

      While it’s unlikely your ISP is blocking all uploads on that protocol, a vpn would bypass that.

      So a vpn is worth testing

        VPN is connected. I have gotten bursts of up to 180kbps downloads that slowly deteriorate to nothing. Currently sitting at 0 upload, 0 download. Collecting bonus points for seeding I guess? But I have no idea what the issue is. I tried switching to a random port and I saw some activity for a couple seconds, but it quickly went to 0 again. I’m so tilted.
