Currently I am running uTorrent on my seed box and I use qBitTorrent on my personal machine.

I am wondering if it is possible for me to check to see if my personal machine is one of the connected peers in the swarm of the seeding Torrent and if so how do I do that?

Any assistance/advice most welcome thanks for your time.

Google will always give you your personal IP provided no VPN involved (whats my IP Question) or try

Thanks yes I already know what my IP is but I was wondering if/how I can find out if I am one of the connected peers to the seeding Torrent in the seed box.

I ask what my ip is while my vpn is going and if my qbit is connected to my seedbox, that ip will be in the peer list of the torrent I'm seeding.

Also, you can see if you seedbox ip is in your pc client as well. If the seedbox ip is in qbit then your pc's ip will be in your seedbox peer list for that file.

Hope that helps.

Okay my seed box IP is not listed in the Peers of the Torrent is question in qBitTorrent?

Firstly why not and secondly how do I get it to connect?

I have a vpn on my seedbox and it always has the same IP address.
I'm using Transmission and ruTorrent on the seedbox.

If I don't have the seedbox in qbittorrent I force reannounce and if that doesn't work, I change the server my vpn is using and force reannounce again. When I find the server that gets the seedbox and qbit connected, that's where I normally leave it. I don't know how to change the IP of the seedbox.

When I can't get a seed for a torrent in qbit, I add it to my seedbox and can mostly find a seed that way and have the seedbox connected to my pc client at the same time and then I can either verify from the seedbox for video and the pc client for other things.

I hope that made sense. Good luck.

Nope I can't get this working for some reason.
I placed new updated Trackers in a Torrent I am seeding from my seedbox.
Everything went well and after an initial period of inactivity (not sure why?) it started to seed and clients were connecting no problems.
When I placed the same Torrent in qBitTorrent on my machine I checked and it has the same Hash number but it just will not connect to the seedbox and buggered if I can figure out why not.

That happens to me as well. Right now I'm getting 2 of your torrents. Both are going into the seedbox, but can only get one of them in qbit the can see the seedbox.

I put the not getting the same torrent in both the seedbox and pc client down to good old Australian internet. :_facepalm
