Originally created by @ToofDerling on GitHub (Aug 19, 2019).

qBittorrent v4.1.7 x64
Windows Server 2012 R2 x64.

Running through a Socks5 proxy with DHT and PeX enabled and these settings:

Use proxy for peer connections: yes
Disable connections not supported by proxies: yes
Enable anonymous mode: no

results in 0 DHT nodes.

If I turn off "Disable connections not supported by proxies" DHT nodes starts to appear. Turning it on again and they start to disappear and after a while there are 0 again.

DHT with the above settings works fine in 4.1.6, so this is a regression.

Perhaps related to #7734? I can do TCP over a socks5, but no UDP connections at all.

I installed v4.1.8 and the issue seems to be fixed. So far the DHT node count is stable (with minor fluctuations of course).

Just to be sure I will let it run for a while before I close the issue.

DHT node count is still stable. Closing.
