I have transmission running on my server in a docker container that is supposed to go through gluetun. If I run test with ipleak and other torrent ip testers it shows my vpn’s ip address. However transmission is running way faster download speeds than deluge or qbit were with the same configuration. It makes me wonder if all the traffic isn’t going through the vpn somehow and I can’t think of any other way to check things other than ipleak tests. I’m probably being over paranoid but a few months ago qbit leaked and I got a letter from my isp. I really don’t need that happening again. Any help would be appreciated.
Power draw can suck, my stack uses almost 1Kw, but it makes a nice white noise machine/space heater. Really if you’re not getting too fancy a regular consumer router with VPN support can do the job at a fractuon of the power draw, but they lack a lot of options.
I’ve been tryining to switch to a virtualized firewall to take one box offline but OPn hasn’t been playing nice with XCP-ng as far as not murdering the throughput and if a I’m going through the effort may as well get off pfSense at the same time.
That’s almost $2.50/day here and we have comparatively low electric rates.
