I'm trying to get Qbittorrent set up within Docker on my home server and want to configure port forwarding through my VPN for all of those Linux ISOs. Ideally, I also want to get a pipeline going with the *arr stack. I've heard the easiest way to do this is with Gluetun but I can't for the life of me figure it out or know how to test it. Anyone been through something similar?

Here is my current Docker Compose for reference:


services:
  gluetun:
    image: qmcgaw/gluetun:latest
    container_name: gluetun
    cap_add:
      - NET_ADMIN
    environment:
      - VPN_SERVICE_PROVIDER=airvpn
      - VPN_TYPE=wireguard
      - WIREGUARD_PRIVATE_KEY="[redacted]"
      - WIREGUARD_PRESHARED_KEY="[redacted]
      - WIREGUARD_ADDRESSES=10.131.184.14/32
      - FIREWALL_VPN_INPUT_PORTS=8069
      - SERVER_COUNTRIES=United States
    devices:
      - /dev/net/tun:/dev/net/tun
    volumes:
      - /home/fenndev/.config/gluetun:/config
    ports:
      - 9091:9091  # WebUI
     - 6881:6881
      - 6881:6881/udp
    restart: unless-stopped

qbit:
    image: lscr.io/linuxserver/qbittorrent:latest
    container_name: qbit
    network_mode: "service:gluetun"
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=America/Los_Angeles  # Timezone set to Los A>
      - WEBUI_PORT=9091  # Qbittorrent webUI port
    volumes:
      - /home/fenndev/.config/qbit:/config  # Configura>
      - /home/fenndev/torrents:/downloads  # Torrent da>
    depends_on:
      glueten:
        condition: service_healthy

Are you sure about that? It shows a green globe, but the max upload speed stays below 1MiB/s. I saw other comments saying this could also indicate you are connected through other peers instead of being reachable through the forwarded port yourself.

That may be true. So far I got the "Firewalled" icon (the little flame) if my port isn't forwarded for reason x or y so idk

The qbittorrrent wiki isn't very helpful so I don't actually know what the green globe truly entails :/
