Hunter's comment

When you visit the website you'll be felt welcome by a message with your IP address and your location on a map. The less accurate this map is, the happier you should be. If it does look close to where you live, just remember that anybody can know this information.

Standard vs Extended Test

It's the same test. the extentded version is bit more thorough with 6 rounds of 6 queries for a total of 36 queries instead of 1 round of 6 queries for a total of 6 queries.

What The Results Mean

You'll get a list of servers and few additional information about them. owners of these servers have the ability to associate your personal IP address with the names of all the sites you connect to and store this data indefinitely.

If you use VPN and you see a server that's not from your provider, then you have a DNS leak.

Great hunt as usual my friend @vimukthi. This is something new and unique platform my friend.

Wish you great success here.
Keep hunting amazing my friend.

Thank You Very Much!

I use it all the time, its a stable service. Can also give detailed information about your connection. Its important to use it to understand clearly if your vpn or tor network is running at that time cause sometimes even you seem like connected to your vpn there can be some dns leak or connection error and at these times it means you are transparent on internet. Good Hunt!

Yes, that seems like a sweet tool. I'm thrilled that there are no major leaks on my end, it only shows my city but no specific region. What I like about their service a lot is the fact that they are also providing you with guides on how to fix the issue, and, the best part is that once you do it yourself, you acquire that piece of knowledge for the future.

Keep on hunting.

Simple tool but very useful for security and to check if your VPN is doing their job. It's easy to use and provide educational info. I do wish the site looked cooler 😃

Honestly I wasn't aware of these issues, I am happy to be informed. Sure I will use Dns leak Tesst. Thanks for sharing.

Week this is useful when it comes to dns leak test in network. It appears to be really functional and great for network engineers

Impressive Hunt, Your Hunt just got Verified!
