- VPN users checking for DNS leaks
- Worth noticing
- The Standard test runs six uncached lookups; Extended runs 36, and each test is deleted from memory after 10 minutes.
Field notes
The test prompts a resolver to look up unique names on the site, then compares the resolver’s network with the one associated with the public IP. An illustrative Lisbon example shows four of six lookups reaching a home provider while the user is connected to a VPN; after changing a VPN DNS setting, all six reach the VPN resolver. The page also discloses affiliate commissions on its VPN links.
