My last foray into Torrenting was when TWC was taken over by Spectrum and I was using uTorrent like crazy. We had Spectrum ONE week and I got a DMCA letter. This is the type of thing I’m trying to avoid.
Although I’ve found a lot of information on Qbittorrent, I would like to know from some long-time users what are the minimum things I must set within the client to be safe, discrete but also have a good Download/Upload experience. I am using ExpressVPN.
Thanks so much!
Whats a DNS leak test and why should it be run
Ipleak.net will run a DNS test and has a magnet link to download and run to ensure your torrent client isn’t leaking anything.
Is that because a torrent would contact a trap dns server or something?
Honestly I don’t know the ins and outs of how it all works, but I know the tool shows that leaks are not something I need to worry about.
