How Accurate Is a Proxy Check for Detecting Hidden IPs? or Can a Proxy Check Really Tell If My IP Is

Bro, same. I’ve had my *real* IP flagged as a proxy while my actual VPN slipped through. Makes no sense.

Best advice? Don’t rely on one tool. Use DNS leak tests (like dnsleaktest.com) alongside proxy checks. If your DNS requests match your VPN IP, you’re probably good.

Also, clear your cookies. Some sites track you even if your IP’s masked.
