OpenVPN not routing traffic!

Hows it goin dudes. Recently wiped my sd card and did a fresh install of 64bit dietpi 7.3.2. I use it as a plex server for content i download through either youtube-dl or torrents. In the past (maybe around 7.2), I used openvpn, logged in with nordvpn, then it began routing my traffic. Today after I set everything up, I started running multiple torrents, but realized openvpn was not routing my traffic in both the login banner AND the standalone dietpi-vpn screen. Is there something I have to edit to make it work?https://100001.onl/ https://1921681254.mx/

What do you mean by this? Do you mean it did not show the correct connection status?
