Are there any VPNs that support both IPv6 AND Port Forwarding (PF) and if so, what is the best one for privacy and security? I know Mullvad is #1 right now and supports IPv6 but not PF. So what about others like OVPN, AirVPN, Windscribe, IVPN, etc.? I have PIA right now and am eager to switch.

    AzireVPN has pf and ipv6. I wouldnt recommend airvpn because you will not get full speeds, I get 450/1000 at most. edit: njalla has pf and ipv6 as well, totally forgot to mention it - though pf is through upnp, so torrenting only ig.

      I’ve never heard of Njalla, but seems like their port forwarding is pretty limited. AzireVPN sounds good on paper, but I just haven’t seen or heard nearly as much about it.

        Njalla also only has servers in sweden, so can also be a downside for you. AzireVPN is good, and I have personally used it, would recommend you buy a month to test it out and then commit if you like it.

          Ah yeah that rules out Njalla then. Did Azire literally just come out? I’m having trouble even finding much on it other than a couple pretty negative “give it a year or two” reviews and some very spammy shill behavior on Reddit.

            They’ve been here a while, just a very small company. Really the only times I’ve heard them were on blogs (originally where I found them) and on r/VPNTorrents a month or two back when they started to do port-forwarding. For me, I found it to be a solid service, but no longer use them due to the pricing.

      Would this be a good thing to mix with a TrueNAS/NextCloud for secure remote access? Or not really meant for that?

        It depends really. Pretty sure you can only forward a total of one port on each, so it’d have to be exclusively on NextCloud, and no torrenting.
