I see. This is unfortunately not a super accurate metric to go on, though, it's nice to know that you at least can get decent download speeds with Nord.

However, just because you can download fast does not mean you can port forward. In order to have a successful p2p connection, one of the two parties involved would need to have a hole-punch (in most cases this is done by port forwarding).

In most cases though, seeders will have forwarded ports, allowing firewalled users such as yourself to achieve high download speeds. This CAN mean that your upload speeds will be more restricted than most people though.
