Verify that it works #5

Hey there, thanks for this project! Very easy to setup!

I have but one question: how do I verify that my VPN-connection works and all traffic gets routed through there? There is no way to see something like the external IP in the transmission web interface. The only indication I have is that my listening port is now shown as closed.

Kind regards

Glad to hear things are working!

I'd highly recommend this torrent for checking the external IP address of your client: http://torguard.net/checkmytorrentipaddress.php

Cool, it seems to be working great and routing all traffic through the PIA VPN! Thanks :+1:
