I check bandcamp first, as you get multiple file formats when you purchase something. Assuming I can’t find things on bandcamp, they are on Beatport 99.9% of the time.
Personally I avoid iTunes as I don’t want AAC files.
Ah then that’s not the issue then. Weird that the qbittorrent interface bind isn’t working for you. Maybe try Wireguard instead? Def set IPv6 to link local and add ::/0 to allowed IPs on the Wireguard profile.
If I start the client without being connected through the VPN, my IP does not show up. It is only when the VPN connection is disconnected and I transition from one network interface to another. This is also if I have the kill switch enabled, so I imagine that if the connection is lost, I am safe as all internet access would be blocked then. And that it is only if I manually disconnect myself that this happens.
Could this be a Proton VPN issue? I am pretty sure I checked this previously, and didn’t see it before the recent Linux client GUI update, but I am not entirely sure.
I’ve noticed before that a manual disconnect from the VPN will automatically disconnect the kill switch but qbittorrent should still lose connection once its bound to the correct interface
Yeah, that is true - I didn’t formulate that quite well. This also happens to me when the kill switch is enabled, as it is disabled when I disconnect. However, it would not disable itself if I simply lost connection, which is in the case where I most want the leak protection. In the other cases, I could make sure to always quit qBittorrent before disconnecting from the VPN. Not ideal, as it would be easy to make a mistake.
That is what the interface bind is supposed to prevent, or at least that is what I thought it was supposed to prevent. To avoid IP leaks in case of a lost VPN connection. I wonder if I’ve misunderstood it, or misconfigured it or something else.
You’re correct that it’s supposed to prevent leaks. It shouldn’t fall back, though there may be a checkbox for that somewhere in the menu that you have accidentally ticked? I’m not near my computer at the moment, so I can’t just go digging in my own menus to verify.
I’ve tried staring with all my might at the different options in the hopes I might identify something. I did turn off the features suggested above in the comment field, but have still been unable to solve it.
I don’t understand why that guy suggested turning off DHT and Local Peer Discovery. It shouldn’t matter…If you have the client bound to the VPN interface, then that should be that.
I just download my favorite music directly from YouTube with youtube-dl or something similar. It’s not pay-walled and it usually doesn’t even have ads on it.
