ANSWERED ipleak.net test readings and Fallback

Recommended Posts

Hi, 
When i do the ipleak.net test, Browser default (IPV4) is green and Fallback (IPV6) is green.  This is correct, right?  And both port # check out right.  I ask because, just prior to this, the test Fallback was red so I refreshed the page and deleted the test link from qBit and re-tested it, getting green.  Is there anything to be concerned about.  Did I do the right thing?  What would happen if I continued on seeding etc with Fallback on Red. 

I once read on Proton that Fallback was meant to be red, but read elsewhere that it was meant to be green, and seems to make sense.  Green = go.

Also, on a Mac computer, what do I set the firewall to?  At Present Firewall is turned on.

In the "Options" area all of these (Control Center, Eddie, JDownloader2, qBittorrent, Spotify) have green circles next to "Allow incoming connections" so these are exceptions to the Firewall block, which is integral to downloading or seeding a torrent, right?  What about Spotify and Control Center, do they need to be set to "Allow . . ." to function?

Thanks for any help with this.

Hello!

Yes, from your description everything is fine.

If you run the AirVPN software Eddie, you can consider to let it set firewall rules to prevent traffic leaks outside the VPN tunnel by activating Network Lock feature. On Eddie's main window please click "Activate Network Lock" button before you start a connection. You may also tell Eddie to activate Network Lock by itself when it is started by checking "Activate Network Lock at start" in Eddie's "Preferences" > "General" window.

Kind regards
