while i was torrenting i switched from canada servers to P2P to see if the download speed was any better, then i realized it was slow so i switched to US servers. this is all while i was torrenting. would i be fine?
pretty sure, yeah
in any case the torrent probably just paused the download
If everything is configured right, you should be fine.
You’re still obscuring your IP by going through the VPN. I think it depends more one who you use as your VPN provider than anything.
Binding your VPN in qbit so that when your connection drops it doesn’t try the next working connection. And setting up a Kill switch so that when the connection to the VPN drops, nothing gets through.
Just my thoughts.
Your download speed depends more on what the seeders are giving you and not on the vpn protocol.
If you bound your vpn to your torrent client, you’ll be ok imo. If you didn’t bind, then no, obviously.
Binding binding binding
Read the pinned post, Learn it, do it, and you’ll never have to worry about this sort of thing
i use nord and i have an app specific killswitch for qbit. it didnt seem to go off when i switched so i guess it was fine, 
Don’t rely on a Killswitch in the app. Bind qbit to it.
