Hello! We have been informed about an imminent relocation of our VPN servers in London. They will be migrated to a different datacenter. IP addresses will remain the same. Migration will start on Thursday, 14 Sept 2023, 22:00 UTC +1 and will end on Friday, 15 Sept 2023, 06:00 UTC +1 (London Time) Expected Duration: the migration is anticipated to take 8 hours, during which there will be a full interruption of services. We recommend that you connect to different VPN servers (in UK or elsewhere), not located in London, during the mentioned time frame. Kind regards AirVPN Staff

The main reason to have your VPN client on your router is so that your whole house can go through the VPN if you wish - devices that can't run a VPN client themselves can be routed through the VPN tunnel. But for your situation it sounds like just running Eddie when you need to torrent is the best option. The main reasons being the simplicity of the setup and the speed. Routers are known for being slow for openvpn unless they have specific chipsets that can accelerate AES. Wireguard is fast(er) on routers, yes, but still since you don't use VPN much and only for your windows PC it's not worth getting VPN client running on router IMO.
