Hybrid VPN on the XR500


Recommended Posts

Status is now connected on the Hybrid VPN setup. How do I know if the added devices are on the VPN? Added my PS3 console and iPhone to test but not sure how to confirm if they are on the VPN, doesn't look like the IP addresses changed.

  • Turn the HybridVPN off.
    • Visit https://www.google.com in a web browser on that device
      • search for "what is my ip" without the quotes
      • note the returned address

The two ips returned from the steps above should be different. That last one should be associated with the ipvanish network.

Please be aware there is a DNSLeak in DumaOS currently and your original IP will be shared until it is fixed, but all other traffic will be through the VPN.

Hey, welcome to the forum!

The above advice is great and should help you with what you want to check. If you change the DNS on the router to the VPN DNS then that is a workaround to the DNS leak.
