Stuck at 0% Progress with qBittorrent on Torrent/Media Server Setup - Seeking Help and Insights

Hello everyone, I've been working on setting up a torrent/media server on an old PC. Everything works near perfectly. However, I'm encountering an issue where qBittorrent gets stuck at 0% progress and just says 'Downloading Metadata'.

I've tried various solutions, including disabling the VPN, and even attempting to download it on my Windows 11 PC (both with and without a VPN). I've tried disabling my Windows 11 firewall and even tried Deluge. Unfortunately, none of these solutions have resolved the problem. I'm struggling to pinpoint the root cause. Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I've tried a few different torrents that Prowlarr has fetched, but the one I've been trying without a VPN is the one from ipleak.net.

EDIT:

Was able to figure out a solution. Not sure why but switching from Wireguard to OpenVPN seems to have fixed the issue..
