Hi guys!

Since (not long ago) I'm using Wireguard tunnel, I do DNS leak tests everyday to see how stable it is.

Two days ago, I increased my internet speed (don't know if this can be the cause).

Today, I did DNS leak test and saw one ISP address, so I did couple tests in a row and some of them had leaks.

I was on r55262. First thing I did is deleting my tunnel, upgraded to r55363 and added a fresh new wireguard tunnel to a different server. Everything looks fine now.

Anyone had this problem with r55262 ?

Thanks Cool

WireGuard docs (a sticky in this forum) have ample information about DNS and DNS leaks.
There is even a guide titled "VPN and DNS guide"

When properly setup you should not have a DNS leak

Already read them all, but thanks for the info.

It was properly installed. It is very easy with "import" button and server file.

Like I said, maybe it was because ISP changed my speed so I needed to update wireguard info...
