Is there a way to limit qBitTorrent only while Plex is streaming? - eviltoast

title

I just want to toggle the alternative speeds while Plex is streaming outside my house. I couldn’t find anything while looking around except for some old scripts that haven’t been updated in years.

    Your best bet is to use a Router/Firewall that supports QoS. I have a Mikrotik router that does QoS and routes all traffic from my qBittorrent server through a VPN. It’s a very convenient setup but Mikrotik’s also require at least some networking background. They allow granular control of almost everything and are therefore easy to mess up.

        OpenWrt supports wire guard VPN and QoS so I would assume yes but I’m afraid I’m not very familiar with it so I won’t be of much help configuring it.
