Need help with VPN'd containers talking to non-VPN'd

[smithy1294]

Hi, i posted this on the subreddit but struggling to find a solution, so here's the problem;

Hi all, bit of a noob to this not going to lie and i've tried searching for an answer but honestly don't know if i'm searching for the right thing or just in the wrong places, anyway...

I have a Gluetun setup for my Prowlarr, Sonarr + Radarr which all work and seem to talk to each other fine (after a bit of port config) however - as stupid as it may seem - im wanting to run my Qbit/Sabnzbd not through a vpn and instead on my host (the speeds are crippled insanely with my vpn and my ISP doesnt care what's downloaded they just dont let you on the sites that host the downloads)

So is this do-able? i know a lot of stuff is using docker-compose stuff which im not 100% on but can kind of do, i mainly use portainer (like i said im a noob, sorry)

Thanks in advance! Hopefully someone can help!

Update: I have set - FIREWALL_OUTBOUND_SUBNETS to 192.168.0.0/24 but it still doesnt see my host on 192.168.0.183

I dunno if it matters but im not running qbit in a docker its just off the host device itself but this is the same device the dockers are running off of, would this make a difference? My Arr apps are still being sent my host devices IP + Port and they did used to communicate before i put the Arr's into Gluetun but im now not sure whether it is a Arr issue or a Gluetun issue tbh. I'll try making a qbit docker to see if that changes anything

Edit 1: So pulling sonarr out of the gluetun network has it connect to qbit/sab fine but nothing in the gluetun container can see sonarr so definitely seems like my gluetun is not setup correctly rather than anything else. I get that this isn't really the 'optimal' setup but it should still be possible surely.

Edit 2: Host is running at 192.168.0.183

This is my Gluetun -
