IP check tool

Exit IP and location lookup

Once the page loads, it sends a single request to a same-domain endpoint and returns your current exit IP, country and region, ISP, and whether that address carries proxy flags. The four results are shown for that visit only — switch routes and query again to compare.

Reading the results

What each of the four fields tells you

IP databases have accuracy limits: country and region are usually reliable, while city-level data depends on where the carrier's exit sits. The proxy flag describes the address only — it says nothing about your account or route status.

IP address

The source address the other server sees

Whenever you visit a site, what it records is this exit address, not the address your device holds on the local network. After you switch routes it becomes an address in the route's location — the most direct way to confirm the connection is actually in effect.

Country and region

Mapped from the address database; city level can drift

Country-level attribution comes from the allocation records for the address block and is fairly accurate. City level depends on which exit facility the carrier registered that block to; mobile networks and corporate leased lines often show the provincial capital or the city where the data center sits.

ISP

The network the exit address belongs to

A data-center carrier means the exit is a hosting address; a residential broadband carrier means the exit is closer to a home connection. Neither is better or worse — it only affects how destination sites classify you.

Proxy check

An address flag, not account status

IP databases tag addresses based on historical behavior, and verdicts vary by database. A “proxy detected” flag only means some sites identify that address as a hosting exit; it has nothing to do with this service's account, plan, or route availability.

DNS leak self-check

If the exit changed, resolution should follow

An exit IP lookup alone does not show where DNS goes. If domain resolution is still handled by your local carrier, some sites will keep returning results based on the network you are actually on, even after the exit address has changed.

  1. 01

    First, make sure only one path is active

    When the system proxy and the client's TUN mode are both on, the traffic paths override each other. Keep one, turn the other off, then continue.

  2. 02

    Query again on this page after connecting

    Click “Check current exit IP” and confirm the country and region match the route you selected. If it still shows your local location, your traffic is not going through the route.

  3. 03

    Check the client's DNS options

    Turn on “DNS follows proxy” or the equivalent option in your client so that resolution requests and traffic use the same path. Names differ between clients; the setting usually lives under Settings or Advanced.

  4. 04

    Verify the resolver from the command line

    Run nslookup example.com in a terminal and check whether the Server line returns a local carrier address. If it is still a local address, resolution is not following the proxy.

Scope note: this page only looks up your exit IP; it does not test DNS resolution. DNS routing has to be confirmed at the client or system level, and the command-line check above is the most direct way to judge it.

Four situations that look like faults

Privacy

Queries are not logged

This service keeps no logs. A query is used only to generate the result for that visit; the page sets no cookies and writes nothing to browser local storage, so a refresh runs a fresh query. The check needs no account and no email address.

  • No logs A query is used only to return the result for that visit.
  • Nothing stored locally The page uses no cookies or browser local storage to keep query content.
  • No third-party APIs Queries go only to a same-domain path on this site.
