With computer resources being limited, maybe I should just set qBittorrent to use a proxy instead.
I just found my orange pi plus rpi clone. I think Ill just use that to d/l via a vpn, and then share its hdd onto my network
If you’re only trying to stop copyright infringement notices from your ISP, this will get the job done.
Are you suggesting that I set up a kill switch?
You could call it that. 
I can’t wait to try this!
Hope it works out fine!
I’m not familiar with that client, but if a client can be set to use a proxy that sounds like a good solution.
After doing some digging over at r/vpn, proxies do nothing to hide your ip apparently. So I think I will look into using an rpi.
