Yes, if a port is set in the port forwarding section for the qbittorrent preferences in the webui (once one is set it stays until changed), the green globe means it's working.
Are you sure about that? It shows a green globe, but the max upload speed stays below 1MiB/s. I saw other comments saying this could also indicate you are connected through other peers instead of being reachable through the forwarded port yourself.
That may be true. So far I got the "Firewalled" icon (the little flame) if my port isn't forwarded for reason x or y so idk
The qbittorrrent wiki isn't very helpful so I don't actually know what the green globe truly entails :/
