SUMMARY

Even when ktorrent is configured to use tun0 (vpn interface) if the vpn is not present, it will switch to another interface.  If the vpn drops while torrenting, ktorrent automatically switches to another interface.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  In network settings, select tun0 and apply
2.   disconnect vpn and observer ktorrent behaviour.
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
ktorrent continues to download.  If ktorrent is started without a vpn present, it will begin downloading.

EXPECTED RESULT
Ktorrent should immediately stop downloading or maintaining any internet connection once the vpn interface goes down.   ktorrent should not start if vpn interface is not present.
