Is My VPN Working?
Free VPN Leak Test for IP, DNS and WebRTC Exposure
Use this free VPN leak test to check whether your VPN is working. The scanner checks your public IP address, VPN provider clues, DNS routing signals and WebRTC exposure so you can see whether your real IP address may be leaking.
Run the test while your VPN is connected. A working VPN should route your traffic through the VPN server, hide your normal ISP IP address and avoid exposing separate DNS or WebRTC signals outside the encrypted tunnel.

How This VPN Checker Works
Public IP Address Check
The tool checks the public IP address websites can see from your browser. If your VPN is connected, this should usually show your VPN server or VPN provider infrastructure rather than your normal ISP connection.
WebRTC Leak Check
The scanner uses the same WebRTC testing approach from the current tool to look for browser-exposed IP candidates. If WebRTC reveals a different public IP, the page flags a potential leak.
DNS Leak Signal
The DNS test looks for visible DNS routing signals. Multiple DNS servers or unconfirmed DNS data can indicate that your VPN, browser or DNS provider needs further checking.

What a Working VPN Should Show
A working VPN should make websites see the VPN server IP address. Your normal ISP, home city and real network should not be exposed through a separate WebRTC result.
What to Do if the VPN Test Fails
- Reconnect to your VPN and run the scan again.
- Enable DNS leak protection and the VPN kill switch in your VPN app.
- Disable WebRTC in your browser or use a browser that blocks WebRTC leaks.
- Try another VPN server if your current server exposes unexpected DNS or location data.
Is My VPN Working FAQs
How do I know if my VPN is actually working?
A working VPN should mask your real IP address. Run the scan while connected to your VPN; if the tool detects your normal ISP, real location or a separate WebRTC IP, your VPN may not be protecting you fully.
What is a DNS leak?
A DNS leak happens when website lookup requests bypass the VPN tunnel and go to another resolver, often your ISP. That can reveal browsing activity even when your visible IP address appears to be changed.
Why is WebRTC leaking my IP?
WebRTC is a browser feature used for real-time voice, video and peer-to-peer connections. In some setups it can reveal network IP information outside the normal VPN path.
