Hello, I want to make it clear that I know how to use my raspberry pi 3b+, I know how to torrent, and I have a general idea how to bind qbittorrent to a VPN on linux.
My questions are this:
- My Raspberry Pi is running Pi-Hole to help manage the entire adblocking, since my brother refuses to install one despite having 2 viruses in the last year.
- My Raspberry Pi is also plugged into the router via Ethernet
- I can install AirVPN, I can slowly figure out their terminal client
How do I make it so qBittorrent is binded to the VPN, but the VPN doesn’t filter the DNS requests so my already slow internet into 1993 speeds.
Mainly just asking here, since reddit is dead to me, and I don’t want to ask a discord.
To be fair your brother would probably still have gotten viruses even with a pihole lol. It won’t prevent you from downloading sketchy shit.
Use docker. There are docker images which have vpns and torrent clients inside. The torrent client only gets connected to the internet when a vpn connection is established.

Don’t mind me plugging my little project. It basically does what you described. Currently rewriting the setup script so anyone interested should use the v1 tag and not the master branch
First you need to get some small sails and rigging. Argh!
Then ye be needin’ a crew. Argh!
Then ye need plenty of wenches! And he-wenches and nonbinary wenches, if ye be that way!
And grog! Plenty of grog!
