Hey all, ran into a weird issue with my Ubuntu server running qbittorrent-nox I can't seem to figure out.

When Qbittorrent is running, I can't load some sites. How I discovered this was Jackett was failing tests to my trackers. Sometimes all trackers would fail, other times only a couple would.

From the server I ran a curl to the tracker URLs and confirmed they were not loading.

Pcap shows the TLS hello go out, but no response from the server.

Once I kill the qbittorrent process, everything works.

Wondering if anyone has any ideas or has seen this issue before.

Things I've tried:

Disabled ipv6
Changed Qbit UI port
Paused Torrents
re-installed openssl
rebooted about 150 times and counting

Qbit version is 4.5.5 Ubuntu 22.04.3 headless running on Esxi

Appreciate any ideas!

Edit: So after much frustration and some other weird things, restored to a previous snapshot and the issue seems to have resolved. Appreciate all the troubleshooting ideas and responses!

You router's NAT table is probably getting full, try a better router and/or putting torrents over a vpn

Cleared NAT translations and rebooted my router for good measure. No dice.

I'll double check this, but my router is enterprise grade so I don't think I would hit any NAT limitations.

Also, as mentioned in my other response, this isn't affecting any other nodes on my network except the server running Qbit and Jackett.

I have another Ubuntu VM on the same host that works fine when this one is failing.

Thanks so much for the response!

Some DNS servers are blocking the requests? Maybe try 1.1.1.1 for all DNS and retry
