I have Proton VPN and qbittorrent running on Windows 10 with qbittorrent bound to Proton interface.

Every now and then Proton will reconnect in the background which means the port changes and the IP address changes.

How can I monitor Proton for these changes and either a.) update qbittorrent or b.) use Pushover to notify me that a change has occurred?

  • If you don’t want to bother with this, something a lot of people do is run qBittorrent with Proton in Docker. There are containers that will pipe any changes directly into qBittorrent. The one I use on my media server is from binhex. All self contained and easy to update since it’s Docker.
