qBittorrent official forums

I am using v4.1.6 on Win 10. I use NordVPN client. I was trying to improve my speeds and disabled uTP, restarted qBittorent. No better so I disabled uTP and went TCP only, restarted Qbit and saw some improvements. I lowered my max connections per torrent to 100, restarted.

Now it won't download anything, status is Stalled. I restarted Win 10. I put back uTP, TCP and connections to 1000, restarted and it still won't download anything. I tried changing to a different P2P NordVPN server, same issue. The desktop can surf the web, access sites no issues.

Resolved for some reason it was using a proxy even though it was not selected.
