VPN and qBittorrent not playing nicely (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I've been on and off been having issues connecting to seeds and peers for anything I download with qbit lately. I have ProtonVPN and I am connected to p2p servers, some torrents are stuck at 0(0) whereas some will be stuck at 0(2817).

I have made sure the port in qbit is set correctly and the interface device, along with opening the port on my router. Ultimately what seems to work is I have to change the port several times, change the interface to ethernet, then back to Proton, then a single download works. Any tips for a fellow pirate?

This may be what I need to look into. Either this or virtualization. Thank you for the tip!

In case you need a pointer, I had to do this recently too. I'm no docker expert, but this works for me 👌
