Question about network/leaking

Recommended Posts

I used a website to see if I'm leaking. The IP shown from the leak site is the same as the one from my second netwrok.
Why do I have 2 networks, is the second one that is also shown to the leak site AirVPN?

Yes, that second "Ethernet" connection is your VPN. Notice how the "Description" field says "TAP-Windows Adapter V9". OpenVPN (the tech AirVPN uses to provide the service) uses what's called a "TUN/TAP device" to tunnel your traffic through the server, which is essentially a virtual network adapter.

 

Why your connection is leaking, I can't tell. Further information would be required to diagnose the problem.
