+## How to setup Torguard for port forwarding.
+
+#### Create a user account.
+
+Go to [My Account -> Services -> My Service Credentials](https://torguard.net/clientarea.php?action=changepw).
+First we're going to create a user account for your VPN so we won't need to use your main account that you use to login to your account on the Torguard site.

+
+Create a new username and choose a secure password,
+of create a Random Username and Password.
+
+#### How to get the IP of your VPN server.
+Go to [My Account -> Server -> Global VPN Network](https://torguard.net/network/)
+
+Then we're going to select which server we're going to use,
+

+
+for the best speed it's recommended to choose the one nearest to your location.
+Lets use for this example `USA Miami` and copy/paste the Hostname `us-fl.secureconnect.me`.
+
+then open a cmd window or something equal and type: `ping us-fl.secureconnect.me`

+
+You will then get the IP Number of the server.
+Remember that for later use.
+
+#### How to set the Port forwarding.
+Go to [My Account -> Services -> My Services](https://torguard.net/clientarea.php?action=products).
+

+
+Then click on `Manage` and select `Request Port Forward`.
+
+![](images/image-20200204211942538.png)
+
+1. That's the `IP` we found earlier.
+2. Select `UDP`.
+3. Select a `Port/Auth` I personally use `995|SHA1`.
+4. First Select the `Protocol` `TCP`. 
+5. I suggest to use a higher `Port`.(This is also the port you will use in your torrent client)
+6. Click on the `+` sign and do the same with the `UDP` `Protocol`.
+7. Then Click on `Submit Request`.
+

+
+And you will see something like this.

+
+You will also receive a e-mail with the ports you forwarded.
+
+#### How to create the .ovpn file.
+Go to [My Account -> Tools > OpenVPN Config Generator](https://torguard.net/tgconf.php?action=vpn-openvpnconfig).
+
+![](images/image-20200204215938930.png)
+
+1. Choose the OS you want to use the .ovpn for.
+2. Choose `Custom`.
+3. Put in the `IP` we got earlier and used for the port forwarding.
+4. Choose `UDP`.
+5. Choose `995|SHA1` or what you selected during the port forwarding.
+6. Choose `AES-128-GCM`.
+7. Choose `2.4 and above`.
+8. Check Requiere TLS 1.2
+9. Click on `Generate Config`
+
+Now you will download a .ovpn file with a random number.
+This .ovpn file you place in the openvpn folder of your VPN torrent client.
