Thank you for the thoughtful reply!
I am able to see the backend stats at that page!
Just now I tried to do another "force reannounce" and the tracker information did resolve and the download proceeded as normal.
Originally I upgraded qBittorrent from 4.X.X to 5.0.3 because of this issue.
If the problem returns - I will try downgrading to 5.0.2 at your suggestion.
EDIT: removed passkey leak - raphjd
Thank you again everyone for your help and suggestions.
