So I have an ExpressVPN subsctiption which I love, but it has 3 devices limitation and I have multiple vms that I want to connect to it, mainly for torrenting purposes. Is it possible to setup something like the diagram I drew? I tried to do it but I couldn't route it properly so torrent clients simply wouldn't connect to anything. Do anybody know if this is possible? If so, could you guide me to a right direction? FYI, I use proxmox containers to do it but I am willing to setup a vm for this.
 
This is not really Proxmox specific question, is it? But from assuming you are on a PVE host and you want traffic from different VMs through your VPN, it might be a good option to go with a VM that acts as router and send the traffic from the other VMs throught the router VM.
 
Hello, @Joo Kim well I am not a technical person. I also use ExpressVPN which is very good for torrenting even for streaming and gaming overall performance is excellent. But three multi logins are not enough. Anyhow, I use VPN router to overcome limitation why don't you try it?
