    DNS leak test fail ONLY on wifi devices?

    Ok thanks for the info. Just seems strange it only happens on WiFi devices in my home. Is it 100% guaranteed working if I go to nordvp.com and it shows the correct VPN IP address and says you are protected?

    DNS leak test fail ONLY on wifi devices?

    Can you elaborate on this statement? What does it mean? Is it normal for this 'proxy' thing?

    DNS leak test fail ONLY on wifi devices?

    But then why when I ask Nord do they state the server isn't theirs? Also why does this only happen on WAN devices? My pc doesn't do this, extended DNS leak tests show the correct expected VPN result

    DNS leak test fail ONLY on wifi devices?

    I do yes. I quickly read that article but it's not relevant to me, just sounds like windscribe claiming they are better than everyone else.

    DNS leak test fail ONLY on wifi devices?

    DNS is set in Asus router admin page to the nordvpn DNS addresses. I haven't changed DNS on WiFi devices since I'm thinking what is the need, if all traffic from each WiFi device is passing through the router which is supposedly passing all traffic through the VPN. The VPN is Nord and I set it...

    DNS leak test fail ONLY on wifi devices?

    Im pulling my hair out with this one. I have setup nordvpn on my asus rt86u router. On ethernet devices the vpn works just fine. However on ANY wifi device in my home, the DNS leak test initially shows the correct nordvpn ip address, however when I do standard or extended test it ALWAYS shows...

    DNS leak test fails with merlin/asus nordvpn setup?

    Ok thanks. So how do I know for sure then that this is just something to ignore, and that my vpn is actually working properly? It's funny how this issue only arises when I use merlin. On stock asus firmware it doesn't happen.

    DNS leak test fails with merlin/asus nordvpn setup?

    This might sound stupid, but in the asus router login under VPN there is a few headers. VPN STATUS - Shows connected to openvpn. VPN CLIENT - Shows ON and connected. VPN SERVER - Shows OFF and nothing there. Should there be something under this heading on also? How do I know for definite that...

    DNS leak test fails with merlin/asus nordvpn setup?

    The ISP is called data camp Ltd, based in Munich Germany. My phone is samsung galaxy s21 running android 12. My ip address on first page of dnsleaktest.com starts 105.xx.xx but when I click standard or extended test it shows ip as 195.xx.xx. I just find it bizarre that this only happens on my...

    DNS leak test fails with merlin/asus nordvpn setup?

    For some reason ONLY on my mobile phone connected via WiFi, it shows a German DNS. The ip address doesn't match what any other website showing my ip shows. On ethernet standard and extended dns leak test both show the correct ip and no dns leak. Any idea why my phone does this?
