Why don't you access your home computer over VPN from Mexico, manage your transfers on that machine per usual, and just pull whatever you need in Mexico directly from your home machine via your VPN? That way you can continue to torrent and seed without burdening someone else's connection.

Just install a VPN server on your computer or router. That's all you need unless you're stuck on CGNAT.
I'm going to take my laptop over there. Anyway, I'd go with a paid VPN for an additional peace of mind.
