mda1125 Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 I thought I would test out the 2 VPN services I'm subscribed to at this time. I wanted to see raw tests, tests with VPN enabled and more importantly, the possibility of a DNS leak. I'll admit while I understand the concept of a DNS leak, I used 3 different web sites to test which are listed at the bottom. No links included as this isn't a pitch for either service except raw links to the speed test I used and the 3 DNS leak websites. Happy to know if those don't work and if there are better actual methods to test for a DNS leak. Speed Test: http://speedtest.xfinity.com/ Comcast Speed Test: No VPN Location: San Jose, CA Download: 240.6 Upload: 12.6 Latency: 14ms Let Software Pick the Server: Comcast Speed Test: NordVPN Location: New Castle, DE Download: 44.6 Upload: 11.8 Latency: 93ms Comcast Speed Test: IPVanish Location: San Jose, CA Download: 67.9 Upload: 11.5 Latency: 19ms Let's Pick a Country: Costa Rica Comcast Speed Test: IPVanish Location: Augusta, GA Download: 62.3 Upload: 9.3 Latency: 198ms Comcast Speed Test: NordVPN Location: Foxboro, MA Download: 46.0 Upload: 10.0 Latency: 233ms DNS Leak Tests: https://www.dnsleaktest.com/https://ipleak.net/http://dnsleak.com/ NordVPN never showed DNS leaks on the 3 sites listed above. IPVanish frequently shows a Comcast DNS server(s) in the mix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
