Does VPN's ip changes after disconnection or are you locked to a specific server?

The IP changes when I change the VPN location (city/state/country). But it does not change when the connection to my ISP drops and reconnects. ⁣

Ok that's very strange because with 4.2.0 it has happened to me that sometimes connection dropped and then reconnected but having always the same "city" locked qbittorrent started downloading again in a matter of seconds keeping the DHT nodes...
