It seems that I can only see the peers for one torrent at a time (click on the torrent in the list, and then the peers tab). Is it possible to simultaneously see the peers for all torrents in a list?

Can your port forward via a proxy? If I setup a proxy in a torrent client like qBittorrent, will this allow me to port forward also?

I would like to always have a VPN be running on my computer and I will use a proxy in qBittorrent if the proxy allows me to port forward regardless of my VPN allowing port forwarding.

Hello, lovelies. QBT was working well in both directions. Now it isn't. The little fire icon at the bottom of the screen is always on. I've downloaded, but peer connections don't seem to be working. I've been all over the internet trying to troubleshoot, to no avail. I posted on Reddit, but then the exodus happened. 1.) It's not the firewall (Bitdefender). There's a rule in place. Also, I turned off the firewall, and nothing changed. I tried enabling port scanning. Nothing changed. 2.) I went to Nord's advice page https://support.nordvpn.com/Connectivity/Proxy/1087802472/Proxy-setup-on-qBittorrent.htm
and followed their directions, screenshot attached. Part of their instructions include going to ipleak.net and using ipleak's magnet link. Nord says addresses are supposed to match. They didn't. Here are screenshots. I tried different servers. I tried a P2P server. 3.) In the absence of help during the exodus, I reset Windows network connections. Nothing changed. I reinstalled Windows 11 (what a PIA!). Nothing changed. Since reinstalling all software, QBT ratios show nobody's downloaded anything from me, which is unusual, even though stuff I like has small swarms.

4.) I tried reinstalling QBT. Then I tried versions 4.5.3, 4.5.2, and 4.5.1. Nothing changed. The little orange flame is still burning. In case it matters, the only place I'm torrenting from/to is rutracker.

If you read this far, tyvm. If you've got suggestions, thank you even more.

Using only 1 public tracker. DHT enabled in options. Question: if public trackers don't use DHT, where do peers with H flag come from?

I liked the rarbg one in the past, but RIP to it. 1337 works, but Torrent Galaxy one hasn't been working for me.

I can't believe it! I've been using this site for years to grab high quality movies, anyone know of an alternative? I'm not really interested in private trackers unless they don't have ridiculous seeding requirements.

I'm trying to link a docker container qFlood to my VPN (proton) on the host to prevent IP leaks.

When everything is on the host, I can just choose "proton0" in the network interface to use, but I don't know how to do that inside the container because this interface is not exposed to the container.

Is there a way to do that?

Or even to implement the VPN inside a container?

What the alternative to prevent IP leaks with qBit on docker?

edit:

I used gluetun + qFlood as advised and it worked like a charmed except that I could't seed or leach at all

Turns out the solution was to change the network interface in qBittorrent options from eth0 to tun0… Simple as that

Thank you all for the help!

There are alot of illegal content out there but are there any that are legal and host legal torrents? or did they all shut down? I want to use qbittorrent but i also want thing sto be legal and not have my ip adress leaked.

I've been looking for a good dark theme for qBitTorrent's web UI, but it seems like they have made some changes that broke most of them. For example, Dracula Theme is broken. Are there any dark themes out there that are working properly on the latest version of qBitTorrent?
