oh kill me please, so sorry, dnsmasq address=/.dev/127.0.0.1 ... 😕

Windows firewall is only opening ports automatically for software when using UPNP, meaning, requests from your torrent client to the LOCAL router. It is not aware of this VPN end forwarding, meaning it's clueless that some port has been forwarded towards your computer. If you don't know how to enable a specific port manually (it's quite complicated, having to go through Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Windows Firewall -> Inbound Rules ; New Rule... and a whole bunch of clicking and stuff...) You might as well disable it when using VPN, since nobody can reach your computer ANYWAY, as you are behind that VPN server (which acts as the firewall !). That one will ONLY forward the specific ports you have configured in AirVPN interface, and none of the others.

Program is winmx OS is win7 64 I am connected to airvpn via software from this site. When not using VPN and forward ports on router winds works fine. Besides when I am at the port forwarding section on this site and select any port and then test it,it never works all ways error 110 timed out. Looks like the port is not been forwarded,

@rainmakerraw: this post should be pinned, very newbie friendly and the issue is one of the most common
