throttle DL speed using Qbit with PIA VPN from Rasp

Hello everyone, cross post from r/selfhosted

Disclaimer : I'm quite a noob and I mostly don't know what I'm doing :)

I experience a 10MiB/s throttle on qbit when I download from my rasp.

When my PC is connected to PIA (openVPN or Wireguard, I reach 300MBps).

My docker compose is the following :

version: "3.8"

services:

gluetun:

image: qmcgaw/gluetun:latest

capadd:

  • NETADMIN

environment:

#pia

  • VPNSERVICEPROVIDER=private internet access
  • OPENVPNUSER=myusername
  • OPENVPNPASSWORD=mypiapassword
  • SERVERREGIONS=Netherlands,France,Belgium
  • PORTFORWARDONLY=true
  • VPNPORTFORWARDING=true

volumes:

#- /home/aubry/Docker/configs/gluetun:/config

#- /home/aubry/Docker/configs/gluetun:/gluetun

  • /home/aubry/Docker/configs/gluetunpia:/config
  • /home/aubry/Docker/configs/gluetunpia:/gluetun

ports:

  • 8080:8080 #qbit
  • 6881:6881
  • 6881:6881/udp
  • 27006:27006 #pia port, to update every 2months
  • 27006:27006/udp #pia port, to update every 2months

restart: always

qbittorrent:

image: lscr.io/linuxserver/qbittorrent:latest

containername: qbittorrent

networkmode: "service:gluetun"

environment:

  • PUID=1000
  • PGID=1000
  • TZ=Europe/Paris
  • WEBUIPORT=8080
  • TORRENTINGPORT=27006 #pia port to update every 62 days

volumes:

  • /home/aubry/Docker/configs/qbit:/config
  • /mnt/NAS2Vol3/Downloads:/downloads

dependson:

gluetun:

condition: servicehealthy

restart: always

On qbit : my Peer connection protocal is set up to TCP

Listenning Port : 27006 (I get this port number from Portainer when I'm connected to PIA) :

 
    
[port forwarding] port forwarded is 27006


  

Do you have an explanation to explain the slow DL speed ?

Many thanks for your help all !

I did a test using a connection to PIA via openvpn directly from my raspb :

openvpn france.ovpn

Ran a speedtest in the terminal and get this result :

https://www.speedtest.net/result/c/97023cb7-535d-4642-983f-4947b8ae7f39

85Mbps DL and 115Mbps UL

Forced France server in my Docker compose file and restarted, but I still can not go above 10 MiB/s on qbit.

Any thoughts?
