Connect Sonarr with Download Master for torrents

[andyvxi]

Hi, I'm trying to configure Sonarr to connect with Download Master on my AX68U (running Merlin) but I'm having no success. Perhaps it's not even possible?

From what I've found so far, I understand that Download Master uses a version of Transmission. I found the settings.json file on my USB storage device, and turned off authentication and whitelisting. Saved.

After disabling and reenabling, or even rebooting, I still can't connect to Transmission directly. I get connection refused when attempting through the browser http://<router lan IP>:9091

Am I missing anything or is remote connection directly to Transmission intentionally blocked off?

Nevermind. I've figured out how to install Deluge.

Please share your success with others. Outline the steps needed to successfully install Deluge for future readers too.

The following helped me to install Deluge through Entware. I didn't find any challenges. The guide was very helpful.
Deluge was running perfectly before I had to perform a full reset and initialisation to try and resolve other unrelated problems.
