connected but ip address is my home address

Post by Hereandthere » Sun Apr 12, 2020 8:48 am

I have been using vpn gate service for a few years. Lately when I an using vpn gate connection using the vpn gate vpn public servers, it shows I am connected. When i try to do a speed test or look up my ip address it shows my connection at my isp instead of my vpn gate connection. it would appear then is no tunnel vpn gate connection. Any suggestions?

While VPN is established, all communications towards the Internet will be relayed via the VPN Server. You can verify that by using "tracert 8.8.8.8" command on the Windows Command Prompt. You can also visit the VPN Gate Top Page to see your current global IP address. You can see your source country or region has been changed to other if you are connecting to a VPN server which is located on oversea country.

Hello,
do you have a proxy activated?
