After you establish the VPN session to change your public IP, you must check your internet connection and your
web browser to know the information your computer sends to the web.
DNS Leak
While surfing the internet your browser not only creates HTTP requests, it also converts domain names into
numerical IP addresses via DNS requests. When using a secure VPN, both HTTP and DNS requests should be sent
through your VPN tunnel or you should use a DNS server which does not reveal your location.
Sometimes if your settings are badly configured your computer can get mixed up and send DNS requests via your
ISP’s server instead of through the VPN. Our test checks if your HTTP and DNS requests are coming from the same
network – if they aren’t, it’s a sign you are trying to hide your real IP address.
While DNS leaks won’t expose the IP address itself, they can reveal that things aren’t what they seem. Netflix for
example does use such hints to prevent geo-spoofing. An interested observer with the right authority could force
your ISP to reveal the true IP address.
How to fix ?
After you connect the VPN server and your public IP change, use our Private DNS server ( IPv4 settings. )
to do this Go to your PC connection settings… and manage the the Network Adapter ( the main Network
Adapter connected to the internet and NOT the VPN Adapter ) and use our private DNS: 10.211.254.254
webRTC
Web Real-Time Communication (WebRTC) is enabled by default in Firefox, Opera and Google Chrome, and
enables video chat, voice calling and P2P sharing from within your browser.
A neat trick, but it allows any website to instantly see your true IP address. The only way to avoid sharing your IP
address this way is to disable WebRTC completely.

Flash
The Flash Player is like a big open hole in your internet privacy – far too easy to poke around and cause damage.
As well as causing serious security vulnerabilities if not regularly updated (and even then…) it also offers multiple
weak points to leak your identity IP address, even while using a proxy or VPN. Block it completely, or as an absolute
minimum stop it starting automatically.
The test doesn’t check if your IP is leaking through Flash, it just tests if Flash is enabled.
How To Fix ?
for Chrome web-browser type chrome://plugins/ and disable flash
