    ipleak(dot)net is a much better test to see if your VPN is working correctly.

    Swap proxies while the test is running to see if there’s any leaks. that’s the one thing that almost every VPN fails at protecting. Mullvad and proton are the only 2 I’ve ever used that don’t leak.

      Sure. But all we were talking about here was Windows silently dropping the VPN completely. That’s very different than evaluating how good a VPN is.

      Simple tests for simple problems.

          Don’t know.
          I’ve checked my ProtonVPN a few times in the last days. It’s working.
          I haven’t tried any others.
