Problem with QBittorrent communicating with the Torrent and Download Speed widgets
I am using docker qbit on synology. It works fine and I can access the web ui at <syno_ip>:8080. However, I can't get it to work with the torrent or download speed widgets. The homarr log shows " ERROR Error communicating with your download client 'QBittorrent' (924b3f6c-2761-45f8-98cf-d19c60914d25): TimeoutError: Timeout awaiting 'request' for 5000ms". I also noticed that ping fails with qbit showing as red (ping timed out), but I can click on it and it opens just fine. I have used <syno_ip>:8080 as intern and extern to keep things simple. I have read through various posts on Google, but none got me closer to a solution.
Solution
Just to document the solution. I have used docker inspect <container_name> to get the ip address with container name being qbittorrent for example. I have then put this address as the internal address like http://<container_ip>:<container_port>.
