IP leaking while using proxy (Socksv5 with Auth)

Post by princefba »

Hi everyone,
I appreciate your assistance, I have setup Deluge with Socksv5 with Auth (using the Private Internet Access Service).
I have set proxy for: Peer, Web Seed, Tracker, DHT

When using this service: http://ipmagnet.services.cbcdn.com/
It shows my proxies IP and MY IP.

Any ideas of why this is leaking? Or how to prevent my original IP from showing?

I have found a solution to this:

Change Network Interface under Network in preferences to the proxies IP. I'm not sure why it's passing on the Network Interface IP to the tracker, but this seems to be hidden now.
