Is My VPN Working?
Run the test
Save a local baseline, connect your VPN, then compare the public IP, network owner, country and timezone. Review WebRTC, DNS and IPv6 coverage separately.
How to interpret it
These answers describe the test's boundaries before you rely on a result.
Can an IP change alone prove my VPN is safe?
No. It confirms this web request used a different visible route, but it does not audit the VPN software, encryption, kill switch, or every application.
Where is the baseline stored?
Only in this browser localStorage after you choose to save it. It expires after 24 hours and can be deleted immediately.
Can this tool prove I am completely private?
No. It reports evidence visible to this browser and request. It does not certify anonymity, device security, identity, or every application route.
Try a synthetic comparison first
Documentation addresses, not a real VPN session: 192.0.2.10 at 09:00Z → 198.51.100.20 at 09:05Z. The example does not contact the network or change your saved baseline.
