My VPN does have port forwarding, but something I am doing in messing with firewalld or my router must be wrong because I can’t get open ports to verify. There are a lot of variables to be troubleshot.
Are you referring to canyouseeme.org (or whatever the site is called)? If so double check that it’s using the correct IP address because the VPN will have a separate IP then your standard WAN IP which is whats displayed by default on the page. Test it by downloading their test torrent and running it in QBit
Yes, that kind of thing. I wonder if it’s because I used my internal IP instead of the router’s? At least for an incoming connection, I assume it’d have to be the external with the relevant port. But I only tried [port] -> [internal]:[port] so far.

You should be using your external IP (or the VPN IP) and the port selected.
