qBittorrent official forums

As the title says, I noticed that connection status was offline but also the port forwarding port had changed in PIA (as it does sometimes) so I changed it in qBitorrent but connection status remained offline.
Things I tried:
- double-checked in advanced settings that i am using the PIA interface
- restarted qBitorrent
- went to ipleak.net and tried the magnet link for Torrent Address detection. It did not work for qBitorrent. I then tried the same with utorrent and it seems to work. Also, in general, the VPN works and in whatismyipaddress I see the PIA address, nit the real one.

So, it seems to be something qbitorrent specific. Any help would be appreciated...

Double check the network interface you've selected.

When QB wasn't working for me I noticed there were two "wgpia0" interfaces in the list. I had to switch to the top one (and then the bottom one disappeared). Note: I'm using Wireguard in PIA.
