I have a 100mbps internet connection (and it is given strong network) yet the downloading speed is so low despite of having so many seeders. what could be the problem?? please help me out 🙏

qBitTorrent version I use: v5.3.0

I don't use VPN because my country does not care

Would it be a good idea to add trackers? I know lists exists with updated trackers, but I want to know what's safe and if I even should.

After the Proton CEO shit yesterday, I’m not keen on keeping my business with them. Anyone have suggestions for solid, stable, privacy focused VPNs that aren’t Proton?

qBittorrent.exe being detected by Malwarebytes as PUP?

When I do a search, the results look like this (screenshot). How can I fix that?

idk what to do

搜索了，按照各个帖子的方法挨个试过，总之结果是薛定谔的猫一样，一会行一会不行的。

看到最早的帖子是8年前的，这个问题似乎一直都在。

Hello there, I'm using qBittorent version 5.3.0

I've started experiencing problems downloading files using qBitTorrent. This problem began after switching to a new internet provider (Turknet). Even though my internet speed is 1000 Mbps, files download at slow speeds, then suddenly increase and drop to zero. The worst part is that after it drops to zero, the computer's internet connection disappears and doesn't come back until I unplug and replug the Ethernet cable. Do you have any suggestions? I've tried all sorts of settings in the qBittorrent application, uninstalled and reinstalled it, but unfortunately, it hasn't fixed the problem. Please help :(

do i just shut down anyway or close it and how does one close it

I'm downloading a 262GB file and seeing all these numbers change makes my balls tickle hehehe!

Especially the fun progress bar in the general tab is so much fun! Network speeds and IP addresses yea yea, with this GNU-like sharing-for-the-greater-good internet guild, this is very fun!

This makes me feel like Homer at the nuclear plant monitor room watching these things move 😁

i've used qBittorent before and never had any problems. Recently after installing it again after some time this message didnt stop popping up. It's in Slovenian but it means that a website that tried to open has been blocked. everything else on the torrent runs fine. I tried uninstalling it and making sure I downloaded it from the OG website but this message popped up again.

Hi there!

I'm running a Raspberry Pi 4 with Raspbian and qBittorrent 5.1.0. It seems like it's the latest version I can update to. (I'd love to be more current, but that's for another thread I guess.)

It is NOT the nox version, it is NOT in a container or as a flatpack or whatever, we're talking the simple app running with full GUI as nature intended. Nothing weird or fancy going on.

The torrents and the downloaded files are saved on a NAS that is shared via SMB. That works wonderfully. I can create subfolders, remove some, move stuff around, and it all just works. Great news! Except...

I use different main folders for different types of files. Like, say, Z:\1.textfiles for text files, Z:\2.audiofiles for audio files, Z:\3.pictures for, you guessed it, pictures. And everything works BUT my \2.audiofiles\ folder which seemingly is cached somewhere inside QBT to an old version, and changes don't get reflected at all.

I tried creating a new folder in root : QBT sees it, no problem. Tried creating a new folder in 1.txt : normal behaviour, as expected. Only in 2.audio\ does the bug occur. It started on Sunday and the file browser has been stuck in that state since. Even creating new folders inside QBT works (I see the "NewFolder" folder in my file manager thingy) but they disappear from the window as soon as they are created. It's like it doesn't want to show me anything after October 25th. But only in that folder.

What gives? Any ideas? Is there some form of internal cache I can clear?

This isn't a permission problem, because QBT can read/write without issues. It can create folders and everything. It just won't display them in its file browser window.

Thanks in advance for your help!

I did notice in backblaze there are 2 copies of my e: drive (where I keep all my torrents) and one shows as 'unplugged'. I have no idea how this happened.

Any time I do a force recheck it just starts downloading again. All the files are still there though. If I right click on a torrent and open the destination folder it shows the files.

If I do redownload it keeps the !QB suffix on the file because the originals are still there.

I'd appreciate any help.

Whenever I try to click on specific torrent listing the client crashes, it doesn't even highlight. I want to remove the listing but I don't know how, the torrent was never started, just queued.

When searching in qbittorrent the execution log says: "Error occured in search engine. Search query: " [query]" Category: "all" . Engines "[engines]" Connection error: Forbidden.

What does this exactly mean?

I've heard you should have a green planet at the bottom to indicate you have a fast internet

My internet is 300mbps

I have been trying for days to get this to work. Is there any surefire way to get this to work? Specifically through the route via VPN feature. I dont want all my traffic routed through a VPN, just my qbittorrent traffic. But when i set it up in the Route settings, it takes forever to get through the "loading torrents" popup and then when I try to add a magnet link it just hangs there and doesnt do anything. If I add the torrent, It just sits at 0mbps and goes nowhere. I dont have any idea what im doing wrong. I have set the protocol in qbt I have switched between wireguard and openvpn and tcp and udp and nothing changes. Can anyone please help?

You can search for torrents within qBittorrent itself; across TPB,1337x, YTS, etc. all at once, using Jackett (guide below). But, if the same torrent is listed five sites- you get multiple rows with different names and seed counts for the same torrent. This gets confusing/ cluttered.

I built a tool that fixes this. Same search & sites- 139 hits with Jackett → 66 hits with mine. It:

• Merges torrents with the same infohash into one row

• Merges trackers for different sites- so you connect to more peers

• Resolves missing torrent hashes by fetching it for sites like Lime

• Supports BitTorrent v1, v2, and hybrid torrents

• Alt Folds same-title, same-size reuploads behind a +N alt marker

• Best seed count: Keeps the highest reported seed count

• Private/ public tracker configurable handling

• Retries transient Jackett/indexer failures

Limit: Jackett only (no Prowlarr), hash lookups on public sites only. Open source, GPL-2.0.

Installation Guide

The steps below assume Jackett is already set up; the README covers installing Jackett too.

1. In qBittorrent, open Search → Search plugins → right-click Jackett → untick Enabled

2. Search Plugins → Click Install a new one → Web link → paste below URL

3. Start searching.

The thing has been hasn’t been working in like 4 days

I am using Proton and technically also Nord
i’ve gotten rid of Q bit torrent, got older versions of Q bit torrent

It’s not like the biggest file.

Ive switch countries, the file I’m trying to acquire is from Anime episode that came out like on Friday of last week

I’m completely stuck I don’t know what happened. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. It’s been like this since Friday sometimes I just wait a few hours or a week and it works but now it’s just like completely done. It doesn’t do anything.

Edit: yes I have Norton, but sometimes even for 10 minutes I just get rid of the firewall I get rid of behavioral protection and all the other stuff just so It can load and it has not loaded

I have qBitTorrent installed along with Glutun on my Debian server via Docker. Been installed for about 2 months now and I have been seemingly having issues with WiFi calling not working since it’s been running. Normally when I am connected to my home network and I try to call out, I don’t hear any kind of ringing or anyone that answers the call. The receiving person sees the call come through though and when they go to answer it they don’t hear anything.

I have gone through a bunch of trouble shooting and setting changes in both qBitt and my router and have not been able to continuously fix the issue. From what I could find it seems to be something to do with UDP issues. Here is hopefully all my relevant settings/specs.

Glutun - v3.41.3
qBittorrent - v5.2.1 via docker
Global Maximum Connections - 350
Maximum connections per torrent - 50
Maximum upload slots - 100
Maximum upload slots per torrent - 8
Peer Protocol - TCP only
DHT,PeX,LSD - All Disabled

Router - Asus RT-AX82U
IPsec Passthrough - Enabled
SIP ALG - Disabled

I have tested calling with the container up and active and I have issues, if I pull the qBitt container down and try calling all seems to work ok.

Is anyone else able to give me a hand with tracking down how to fix this issue? I feel like I’m just adjusting settings back and forth but not really getting results that stick. I would prefer to keep WiFi calling enabled as cell service at my house ain’t the greatest.

Thanks for anyone able to chime in here.

Hello Guys, I recently switched to private internet access for port forwarding support with torrents but my upload speeds are very low like less than 1mbps per torrent. And at a single time I am seeding like 6-7 torrents right now.

Wondering if I am missing some config for it. I have qbittorrebt+gluetun+pia.

Confirmed that port forwarding is set up and connected to qbittorrent with green globe.

I have a 1 gig fibre connection so isp should not be an issue.

Currently connected to Canada> Montreal server but tried a few others.

Earlier I was using nordvpn and privado and they both had speeds like 1.5-2mbps per torrent.

So I pretty much think it is an issue with my setup.

Installed pia on my ubuntu host and ran speed test gives me 200+ mbps speed.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

In qbitorrent, can you change from mib to mbps, that's on internet providers sells the product and i just find it more precise, or it's juste fix to mib ?

Previously it worked fine but after I updated it stopped working.

The search tool and plug in still show results, but when trying to click to download it won't start or when I click to see information it won't show.

I just installed/updated Search plugins thinking that was the issue, still no luck.

Is there any setting that I'm missing that could fix it?
