      On private trackers thats pretty typical in my experience, if you’re getting that on public trackers and you see there are peers then you might not have port forwarding set up correctly.

        Trying to correctly configure port forwarding can be difficult though…

          Use a VPN with port forwarding. Every one I’ve ever used let me forward a static port, assigned from the account section of the VPN website, which I then entered into Qbit along with setting QBit’s network interface to the VPN so that everything stops if the VPN goes down.

          Im thinking most people’s issues arise from using something like NordVPN or Mullvad which don’t offer port forwarding.
