DNS Leak Test

Run a free DNS leak test to check which DNS resolvers answer your browser requests. Detect VPN or proxy DNS exposure and see resolver IP, ISP, ASN, country, and type

Overview

Check your connection for DNS leaks

See which DNS resolvers answer your browser’s requests. Choose a standard 6-query check or an extended 18-query test to view each resolver’s IP, provider, ASN, country, and type.

Choose a mode and start the test. No signup required.

The test on this page sends DNS queries from your browser and reports which resolvers answer, including their IP address, provider, ASN, country, and resolver type. Compare these results with the DNS resolver expected for your VPN, proxy, browser, or network configuration.

Seeing a resolver operated by your real ISP can indicate a DNS leak. However, an unfamiliar provider or a resolver in another country does not prove a leak by itself, especially when public DNS services are used.

Deep dive

What is a DNS leak?

Proxy DNS leaks depend mainly on how your browser, application, or automation tool resolves hostnames.

Some clients resolve domains locally, while others pass them to the proxy for remote resolution

A DNS leak happens when DNS requests bypass the VPN or proxy route you intended to use.

It is usually caused by browser, application, operating-system, or tunnel settings

Workflow

Do proxies leak DNS?

Step 1

Create a Gateproxies account and open the dashboard.

Step 2

Choose residential, mobile, or ISP based on the job and risk profile..

Step 3

Set country or city targeting and sticky vs rotating sessions.

Step 4

Copy the proxy string into your browser, scraper, or antidetect profile.

Step 5

Monitor success and usage, then scale bandwidth as needed.

Step 6

Contact support if a target needs protocol or geo tuning.

Details

What causes a DNS leak

Gateproxies is built for operators who need clean exits and predictable sessions for dns leak test workflows. You pick the IP class, set rotation or sticky behavior, and keep auth simple in the dashboard.

Residential pools start from $2.20/GB on high-volume monthly tiers. Mobile follows the same bandwidth ladder. ISP static lines start from $2.99/IP for long-lived logins.

Success rates depend on your target stack, but quality filters reduce weak endpoints before they enter rotation. That keeps scrapers, browsers, and automation jobs more stable over time.

Integrate with Puppeteer, Playwright, AdsPower, Multilogin, Dolphin, and system tools like Proxifier using standard username and password proxy strings.
