I have recently been having a lot of issues maintaining a connection with my proton vpn in gluetun. it keeps dropping and reconnecting due to failing periodic small health check. My internet connection is solid without connection issues, running a symmetrical 1gbit and the router (gl.inet brume 2) doesn’t register any dropouts in connection.
i have tried following the suggested troubleshooting in the docs, updating the vpn server list etc., but none of the suggestions seem to fix this issue. it has been going on for several months now. if i use mullvad it works perfectly without connection issues, but this is destroying my seed ratio due to no port forwarding.
[EDIT] it seems to be caused by radar/sonarr trying to reach my trackers. When I removed them from my docker-compose and left just the qbit and gluetun containers, it stopped failing and just kept running without dropping the connection. Configuring flaresolverr to be part of the docker-compose seems to have fixed the issues I was having.
3.40 still seems to have this issue, it doesn’t change anything in stability unfortunately.
