You have to disable ipv6 completely.  You'll need to install gedit, and open/create  /ect/sysctl.conf

Then add these lines:

net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6 = 1net.ipv6.conf.lo.disable_ipv6 = 1

Then activate sysctl by running:

 

 

sudo sysctl -p

Hint,  you have to use sudo for gedit as well...

Didn't notice if you were using windows,  if you are,  go into your network and internet/network connections,  and in your adapter properties,  uncheck ipv6.  Leak gone!

you should check file

/etc/network/interfaces

 

and remove from here any DNS servers belonged to your ISP.

 

also check file

/etc/resolv.conf

 

and place here your trusted DNS (for example google dns 8.8.8.8)

I recommend to make this file readonly to prevent it from change

 

chattr +i /etc/resolv.conf

 

Hope this help. Also try to check dns leak with different tools https://bash.ws/dnsleak or https://leaktest.online/

 

Good luck.

Hello,

 

i have an issue too. I routed all the traffic through my VPN. In the merlinwrt settings on my rt-ac86u in lan settings i only use the dns 10.4.0.1 but when i check on ipleak.net i see the airdns and a second dns...?

 

how is this possible my system leaks dns? the second dns is: 45.76.91.215 - this isnt my ISP dns but i feel something i s leaking. firefox is already configured in the about:config setting. i set the media.peerconnection.enabled to false.

 

Edit: I was wrong... I deleted the dns server in the lan tab and added an opennic dns in the wan tab as secondary dns. now evrything looks fine i think. i see on ipleak.net now the airdns and the second one from opennic: 94.247.43.254

 

am i fine with this setting or do i have to fear because this shows a dns leak?
