Use network interface instead of an IP

Post by mizik »

Hello,

I'm using a VPN (windscribe) that gives me an IP address that changes on a regular basis.
So I can't use the IP function in Deluge.

Any chance to see an option to download on a network interface only ? like in qbittorent ?
any other workaround/trick in windows ?

Thanks,
shamael

Hi,

Never tested but saw it in a recent similar search https://sourceforge.net/projects/forcebindip-gui/
Maybe it may fit your need

Weird, was the software laucnhed as administrator? The administrator token may be needed for such usage.
(so simply "run as administrator" even if your user has this privilege already)

Yeah I tried as an admin and same issue.

But I found another solution to my problem.
The windscribe software comes with a firewall that works perfectly (no internet acces unless the connection is active). This way I'm sure my torrent software can only download when the VPN is connected :)
