1 | | *just to clarify, the link for killswitch setup also links to Windows firewall setup instructions so don't need to use commodo. |
| 1 | *just to clarify, this can be done without commodo using win7 native firewall. |

| 3 | EDIT: |
| 4 | I thought the link I posted above also linked to it but looks like only their commodo instructions are still active (win7 firewall link is dead). |

| 9 | I have also confirmed both issues under both firewalls. I should probably mention that I am just using default PIA OpenVPN settings + dnsleaktest.com scripts. |
| 10 | |
| 11 | I am using the strong config [https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/openvpn/openvpn-strong.zip] but have confirmed the same behavior under the regular one as well [https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/openvpn/openvpn.zip]. Other applications that have identical firewall config to Deluge behave correctly. '''On my firewall logs, I can see that on deluge launch, it tries to making an outbound TCP connection from 127.0.01:50574 to 127.0.01:50573 which gets blocked and then deluge appears to exit immediately after.''' This only seems to be an issue for Deluge, but I will try to investigate this further to rule out any config problems on my end and report back. I did already try making a rule to allow TCP+UDP (as opposed to just IP) as long as it goes through my VPN adapter, but no dice. |

| 13 | I think my Deluge network settings are using defaults, but just in case I changed something and forgot about it, see below. |
| 14 | |
| 15 | |
| 16 | Bandwidth and Proxy settings should be default. I am using VPN rather than Proxy as I felt this was the more secure route. I don't use NAT or UPNP as I didn't like the certain security aspects of those configurations. As I mention above, everything works fine except initial startup and automatic adding of magnet links (unless firewall is disabled). |
