Bind your VPN adapter to the network interface inside Qbittorrent settings. If your VPN has a kill switch setting(only pass traffic on VPN) enable it. Run a DNS leak test.Find sources on the megathread. Don't use the pirate bay.
Thank you for the info! I've already enabled the Kill switch and I'm finding out from ExpressVPN what to put in the Network Interface inside Qbit. Also, why not The Pirate Bay out of curiosity?
It’s the Walmart of torrents, and it’s got more LEO than a New York Dunkin Donuts.
Ipleak.net will run a DNS test and has a magnet link to download and run to ensure your torrent client isn't leaking anything.
Honestly I don't know the ins and outs of how it all works, but I know the tool shows that leaks are not something I need to worry about.
