Hi Jochen, Ah, I understand. I believe services like AirVPN allow clients to forward traffic to them on certain ports. For example, if you configure the VPN-provider to forward all the incoming traffic on port 9001 to your router as the client, you are able to run a relay from behind your router (you still have to forward the traffic from your router to the relay in your home network). This topic <https://airvpn.org/topic/9967-torport-forwarding/>suggests this is a working configuration.
I don't know if privateinternetaccess.com allows clients to forward ports, though.
