[Solved] dnsleak results show no leak, but IP address lookup shows internal/lan IP
-
I only see my external ip.. (tried various ways , browsers, connections etc)
dns leak says I'm using opendns, which is true and intended (but a leak)
Now if it is an internal private host ip, certainly is no issue.
I suspect your browser
see this

However myip.is doesn't find my internal.
but www.whatismyip.com does... -

Are you running proxy on pfsense? Looks like its handing over that info via X-Forwarded-For most likely.. Clearly it mentions proxy..

Possibly webrtc, search for how to disable it in your browser.

@pippin Thanks for your reply.
I want the changes network-wide instead of just the client; therefore, would not like to change browser settings per machine. How can ensure complete anonymity so the external sites do not detect the internal address? -
@johnpoz Yes, running Squid in Transparent mode. Looked for the x-forward-for in the proxy settings, but didn't find it. Where might that settings be? Thanks.

@rsaanon said in [Solved] dnsleak results show no leak, but IP address lookup shows internal/lan IP:I would have like to have pasted the screen shot of the above two tests, but I'm not sure how to include the screenshots on this forum.
