Network Egress Check

Public IP and Location Lookup

See the public IP used by your browser for this request. After switching routes, run the lookup again to compare the results. This may not reflect the connection path used by every app.

Current Egress Details

Waiting for lookup

The lookup runs automatically when JavaScript is enabled. You can also select “Check again.”

Public IP
Temporarily unavailable
Country or region
Temporarily unavailable
Internet service provider (ISP)
Temporarily unavailable
Proxy detected
Temporarily unavailable

Copies only the IP address, not the other details.

Proxy status comes from the lookup service and may be missed or misidentified. This tool does not actively test DNS resolution paths.

What this information means

Check your egress IP first, then determine whether your apps use the same connection path. A single status label isn’t enough to confirm whether a connection is working as expected.

Public IP: the address websites see

This is the public address seen when your request reaches this site, not your device’s local network address. When a proxy is enabled, whether your egress IP changes depends on the client mode, routing rules, and browser settings.

To compare, copy the results before and after connecting. If the address hasn’t changed, first check that the client is connected and that this site’s requests aren’t set to bypass the proxy.

Location: how IP databases classify an address

The country or region reflects how a database classifies the egress IP; it doesn’t indicate your device’s physical location. Database update schedules, IP transfers, and provider registration details can all affect the result.

If the location doesn’t match your selected route, switch routes and check again. A website’s own location rules determine how it identifies your region.

ISP: the provider associated with the egress IP

When you’re connected through a proxy, this may show the provider for the egress network rather than your local internet provider. A missing field means the lookup service didn’t return valid information; it doesn’t mean the connection has failed.

The ISP name alone can’t tell you the route’s speed or quality, or whether a particular service is accessible.

Proxy detection: one useful clue

“Proxy detected” means the lookup service flagged this egress IP as a proxy. “No proxy detected” only means it wasn’t identified this time; it doesn’t prove that you aren’t using one.

If the lookup service doesn’t return a clear result, this page shows “Temporarily unavailable” rather than treating a missing field as a negative result.

How to check for DNS leaks

Your public IP and DNS are separate checks. A changed egress IP doesn’t prove that DNS queries are taking the expected path.

  1. Check your client’s DNS mode

    Review the DNS and routing settings in your client to confirm whether it handles DNS queries. If you’ve only enabled the system proxy, also check whether your browser and target apps use it; different apps may resolve DNS in different ways.

  2. Check your browser and system settings

    Review your browser’s Secure DNS setting, manually configured system DNS, and settings in other networking tools. Secure DNS encrypts traffic, but that doesn’t guarantee DNS queries go through your proxy. What matters is whether the actual resolution path matches your expectations. Change one setting at a time while keeping a copy of the original configuration so you can restore it.

  3. Review DNS activity in your client logs

    Connect to the route you want to check, open your client logs, and visit the website in question. Look at the rules matching its domain, the resolver, and the connection path. If you use a dedicated DNS testing tool, check which DNS provider it reports, not just the country label. A resolver’s location alone doesn’t prove there’s a leak.

  4. Check again and note any issues

    After changing settings, make another request and, if needed, clear the DNS cache as described in your system documentation. If resolution still fails or the path doesn’t match your expectations, note your system, client, route name, time, and error message, then continue with troubleshooting.

Lookup privacy and troubleshooting

We don’t log lookups. This page uses our own service to retrieve egress details; it doesn’t call a third-party public lookup service or save results in your browser’s local storage. When you select Copy, the IP address is written to your device’s clipboard.

A public IP is a network identifier. Before sharing a screenshot or troubleshooting notes, consider masking the full address and removing sensitive information such as passwords and subscription links. See our Privacy Policy.

If you see “Temporarily unavailable,” make sure you can access this site and try again, or switch routes and repeat the lookup. An unavailable lookup service doesn’t mean your proxy connection has failed. If you still need help, submit a support ticket in the user panel and include the error message—there’s no need to share your full IP.
