VPN and qBittorrent not playing nicely (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I've been on and off been having issues connecting to seeds and peers for anything I download with qbit lately. I have ProtonVPN and I am connected to p2p servers, some torrents are stuck at 0(0) whereas some will be stuck at 0(2817).

I have made sure the port in qbit is set correctly and the interface device, along with opening the port on my router. Ultimately what seems to work is I have to change the port several times, change the interface to ethernet, then back to Proton, then a single download works. Any tips for a fellow pirate?

If you are using Linux I wrote a script just for that!

I'm using it on my headless server and it worked fine for the last two months. Tell me if you need help in the setup (the Readme should be exhaustive).
