      My pfsense is setup and appears to be working with OpenVPN correctly. I go to ipchicken.com and ipleak.net and see IP for OpenVPN. ipleak.net shows OpenVPN address and only one DNS as expected. However I was alarmed when I went to fast.com and clicked on show more Info. I see my WAN IP address? Any Ideas? Also www.myipaddress.com shows my real WAN IP? My VPN provider is NORDVPN.

        I just tried it. Fast.com showed my real WAN IP. Then I connected to my VPN and tried again, and it showed the correct VPN address. Considering that you've provided exactly zero details of your configuration, I don't know how anyone can help you.

          Thank you KOM for trying. Really strange that everything on mine seems to be working other than a few sites seeing my real IP. I'll provide details. I followed these instructions. https://nordvpn.com/tutorials/pfsense/pfsense-openvpn/

          Disregard looks like it's ok after all. fast.com uses netflix servers. I have netflix passed through VPN. Also www.myipaddress.com uses amazon servers, I allow amazon to pass. Looks like everything is ok. Thank you
