(My first post here, so hang me if I write shit  )
Have a new subscriber. 4G router with Telia, Huawei B525s-65a. I put it in bridge mode.
On the Huawei, there's a Airport Extreme (AE), to which I connect thru wi-fi.
The AE has NAT, but also a port forward to my seed-box's local ip.
In spite of this (which worked on an older setup with another ISP), I am still not connectable, i.e. other peers cannot connect to me, but I can connect to them. Thus, fast download from many peers, but barely any upload.
Suggestions?

Being able to accept incoming connections is not the same thing as being able to upload. If you are successful in making outgoing connections, then you can upload to those peers.
You should still sort out why you can't accept incoming connections. That does increase the number of peers you can connect to. Be sure you are forwarding both TCP and UDP and that your client is in fact listening on the same port you forwarded.

Previous post did not answer my question.
Clarification - - -
App: Transmission
"Port is closed" is the problem. With previous provider (same setup with routers) this was green = peers can connect to me. The same port is forwarded to my local ip in router, both TCP and UDP. On the Huawei bridge, I can do no port settings (naturally).

First, if you have the port auto mapping enabled, then you don't need to manually forward the port. Just make sure you have the NAT port mapping protocol enabled on the Airport base station.
Second, be sure that the Airport station is getting your ISP assigned address and that the modem is really behaving as a bridge.
Third, and unrelated, unless you have a reason not to, enable the Micro Transport.
Finally, unless you have experience using bittorrent with this carrier, what you are trying to do may not be possible. It isn't entirely uncommon for cellular carriers to put groups of subscribers on private networks, so you may already be behind a NAT that you can't forward through.

That must be it (yes, I am on a cellular 4G carrier). All other suggestions performed.
So there seems to be no way around it.

VPN: Unless traffic limit and/or data shaping are in effect by ISP, did you test a VPN to mask and redirect your torrents?

I will not pay for VPN, and know of no free and good/fast ones. I did not test any VPN.
