qBittorrent official forums

There is something that is preventing my client to download anything.
You can see it is stuck on "Downloading metadata", for a lot of time.
Other torrent clients work (on the same torrents).
Outbound connection rules in Windows Firewall seem ok, but to be sure I tried to disable the fw completely. It didn't solve.
What could be the problem here?

I'm having the exact same experience. Worked fine a few days ago, but started acting up yesterday.

Tried installing another client to test, and the same torrent connects. Disabled my VPN without any change. No change in ISP or modem either.

In the qBittorent settings, under Advanced, the Network Interface had changed over to a specific non-useable one. Changing that fixed it.
