The VPN is transparent and always on for Firefox in this case, since all network traffic is routed via Gluetun. If you get no errors and internet works in your Firefox container, it should be working. You can verify for example via https://ip.me. If the IP it shows in your containered Firefox differs from what you get on another computer on your network (or your Unraid box, you can also do curl ip.me via Unraid console/ssh for the same effect), then your VPN is working. The IP your Firefox container shows via ip.me should also match your VPN configuration.

Apologies, my answer before was basically correct, but missing a crucial step if you need to interact with the container You will need to expose your Firefox container's web UI port via your Gluetun container (since network traffic now goes through that one). For example, if Firefox's web UI port is 3000, you would add that to Gluetun's configuration. You will need to remove that port mapping from the Firefox container first, or at least change it to something different. So you'd add something like this to your Gluetun container (change ports according to your configuration/preference):

April 30, 20242 yr Hi, I had an issue with the gluetunvpn container, it was stuck in an endles restart circle. A new container version has been pushed a few hours ago. does anyone had the same problem ? The latest version is indeed broken : https://github.com/qdm12/gluetun/issues/2244 I solved it by manually adding the v3.38 version to the docker application. Edited April 30, 20242 yr by hot22shot

July 5, 20241 yr I just set up GluetunVPN with Deluge. It works great until it doesn't. Once a day or so, Deluge stops working. It won't work until I restart GluetunVPN. So I think there's just an occasional disconnect in Gluetun that causes the issues. Is there a way to have Gluetun reconnect on a disconnect or restart the container on an error? Or is there any way to set up an email alert when Gluetun has an issue?
July 26, 20241 yr Hello, I'm trying to get ddns-updater working but I keep running into issues: The log file reports this: 2024-07-26T12:30:02-04:00 ERROR reading file: open /updater/data/updates.json: permission denied 2024-07-26T12:30:02-04:00 INFO Shutdown successful I have tried to create the directory structure and set the permissions it needs to get to the file but it doesn't seem to find it Any suggestions?
August 25, 20241 yr Installed GluetunVPN (qmcgaw/gluetun) app from Community Application... have it configured and running and seems to be connecting to PIA as expected... Issue seems to be I am unable to add new ports for my existing dockers that I want to route through Gluetun. When adding a new port on the docker config, there is no input for "container port" so unable to access any of those dockers obviously.

Gluetun defaults to Bridge (like most containers seem to do). Not sure how using Host network changes things. Is there any particular reason you'd be using that? My uneducated suggestion is to use network mode Bridge for Gluetun. That seems to work for me, at least. I'd you're already using Bridge, then I have no idea.

I'd you're already using Bridge, then I have no idea. I was/am using custom network which I've always run my dockers on a unique network/VLAN segmented from my primary unraid host network. As soon as I moved the Gluetun docker back to "bridge" mode from my custom network, it then let me add the container port as expected...
September 5, 20241 yr i am not good with these things, so please forgive me, but I just wanted to protect my server behind a VPN, and I read that gluetun was "easy". (I wish people would stop using words like that for anything techy...). I have Mullvad, and am using wireguard where possible. (I tried installing the vpn with the wireguard settings in Unraid Settings, and that didn't seem to work, though I'd probably prefer to do that). So I installed this app on unraid on the thought that I could route qbittorrent, deluge and rutorrent through it. However, reading replies in this thread, does have I misunderstood what gluetun does? Someone above suggests that the entire internet traffic for a router will now go through it? I don't think I want all internet traffic to go through the server. I just wanted the torrent clients (and *arrs, I guess) to be routed through a VPN. Either way, whatever information and keys and addresses I'm getting from mullvad, it seems i'm inputting incorrectly, and tutorials and guides seem outdated for the amount of fields that need filling now in 2024. (it seems older versions needed less information). Can someone guide me through how to protect my server? Thanks
September 28, 20241 yr I’ve successfully installed GluetunVPN, and everything seems to be working and connected. However, I’m struggling to get my other Docker container (Stash) to connect and run through the VPN. Here’s what I’ve tried so far on Stash: Network type: None Extra Parameters: --network=container:GluetunVPN Every time I try to start Stash, it shows green for a second, but when I refresh the Unraid page, it’s stopped again. I’m super confused and feeling kind of stuck right now. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Edited for more information.

December 17, 20241 yr Hi ! I have a problem recently, DDNS Updater won't update anymore In fact, in doesn't detect the new IP and just tell me it's unchanged for 300+days, and display an old one Today i tried to redo the config.json since there was some little change from when i installed it a year ago and used this template : https://github.com/qdm12/ddns-updater/blob/master/docs/infomaniak.md I'm joining docker logs (replaced my domain by *) I don't understand why it won't work Thanks DDNSlogs.txt Edited December 17, 20241 yr by AinzOolGown
December 24, 20241 yr Evening all, After SpaceInvaders latest video, I thought I'd try out GluetunVPN. I've successfully setup Sabnzbd, Radarr & Sonarr to run through Gluetun, which is running ProtonVPN (wireguard). My issue however is that I can not for the life of me get qbittorrent (Linuxserver version) to work with Gluetun. Qbittorrent will start up and returns the VPN IP provided by Gluetun, however it won't download anything. I believe it will be down to me not having successfully set port forwarding. I have tried a million different things, resulting in a mixed bag of Gluetun and/or qbittorrent refusing to start, and me having to start over several times, but I have now exhausted my ability to solve this on my own. I'm sure it will be something simple. Below are screenshots of my GluetunVPN & qbittorrent setups. Qbittorrent; GluetunVPN; Any advice would be greatly appreciated. ***Update*** For those that may run across this issue in the future, I managed to resolve the matter. Having a further look around the settings within qbittorrent, I changed the network interface (tools-options-advanced) from wg0 to tun0, which is what is set for the GluetunVPN VPN_INTERFACE option, and its working (just tested via ipleak.net). It seems so straight forward in hindsight, but I've been wracking my brain's for the past few days on this. Edited December 29, 20241 yr by unraid888

Is there a way to have Gluetun reconnect on a disconnect or restart the container on an error? Or is there any way to set up an email alert when Gluetun has an issue? I believe I'm having the same issue. I have GlueTUN setup using Mullvad and also as a Tailscale Exit Node. I have both Qbit and Prowlarr using the GlueTUN network. All works well, until it doesn't. Regularly I'll wake up to Indexer errors on all my *arrs, saying they can't reach the indexers and Qbit (my *arrs route via Prowlarr). A reboot of each container fixes this. I'm assuming that at some point GlueTUN has an issue, which it manages to fix itself, but it leaves any container which is using it out in the cold until it is restarted. Is there any way to get GlueTUN to restart other containers after recovering from an error? For now I've solved it by removing both Qbit and Prowlarr from the GlueTUN network and pointing them to the GlueTUN proxy instead. Edited January 15, 20251 yr by NeoDude

January 20, 20251 yr Greetings, I have Gluetunvpn running and several dockers working through it. I can confirm in Firefox that I'm behind VPN, but I'm leaking DNS requests. My DNS requests show as originating from Cloudflare. I'm guessing this has to do with the setting "DOT" which is on, and the DOT provider set as Cloudflare. The context help says - Quote Container Variable: DOT (Recommended: on) Activate DNS over TLS with Unbound The whole purpose of a VPN is privacy, so I'd presume this is beneficial in some way. I don't know what Unbound is - something I additionally have to set up? Or is DNS over TLS up and running with this setting "on"? Who can see my DNS requests now. Cloudflare can, can my ISP? Can others? Why is this beneficial compared to running DNS through the VPN provider? Thanks for making and offering this software
February 16, 20251 yr Good evening I have a problem with upload speed with qbittorent: It is very slow (69.6 KiB/s avg.) I go through pia as a vpn. Is there any action to be taken regarding the port forwarding? A configuration of qbittorent? When restarting gluetun and qbittorent, the upload speed is fast, and then it goes back down to around 1kib/s
March 1, 20251 yr Hello, is there an up-to-date guide on how to get GluetunVPN working with Mullvad? (port forwarding is no longer available). I would also like to use only WireGuard as a connection.
