So I’m pretty new to this, but have a Linux system set as a torrent box / emby server. I’m running protonvpn cli with permanent killswitch and qbittorrent set to use the VPN tunnel.

I’ve been running it for about a month now, but just found out I had a leak early August and got a copyright notice from my ISP. I’m pretty sure this is related to a lock up and crash of the protonvpn gui client, which was shit. I haven’t had any notices since, despite doing heavy downloading. I also did not have QBT configured to only use the VPN tunnel at that point.

My question is, is there anything else I can do to prevent leaks? It’s got me a bit sketched.

I’m pretty sure 1pv6 is disabled, I went rhoguh steps but I’m not 100% how to verify. Ipleak tests show falling back on ipv4 instead of 6, if that’s any indication

Where did you disable ipv6? In your torrent app?

I had to follow a tutorial, I believe there was a file or 2 that had to be edited with something specific. I’ll try to find it for you when I’m off work.

No, it was done through command line
