Hiya!

I am running jackett/qbittorrent (on docker) locally through firewall vpn to ipt and tl. The problem with going through vpn is connectivity. I am seeding and downloading just fine (it seems) but the trackers are listing me as 'unconnectable'. Because of this I want to test using a seedbox to see if there is a difference. Before I jump in I have a few questions for the pros here:

1) Is there a big difference between connectable and unconnectable torrenters?
2) Is it OK to run my local qbittorrent and remote seedbox side-by-side? If not, why not?
3) If its OK to do (2), what precautions (if any) should I take to avoid problems with my tracker accounts?
4) Every media app I use today is local (Plex, Xrr's, Indexers, etc). Should I host only jackett/qbittorrent on the seedbox? Why (not)?
5) I don't mind testing two or three but, what (IYO) is the best value-for-money seedbox going today? Why?


Thanks in advance!
