Description
Hi,
Please add some basic networking settings.
I would like to be able to specify proxy or socks server to use.
As well as support for VPN. Would love to see a kill switch option for OpenVPN.
That is only allow traffic if routed through OpenVPN. As in, only when VPN is active. Do this now using Windows firewall, but it is a pain.
I'd also like to be able to control what ports to use. Traffic limits would be nice as well. That is max download and upload speed as well as max ratio for seeding back while downloading.
Thank you,
Will
