What is a VPN (Virtual Tunnel)?
Virtual Private Network. It is an encrypted steel pipe drawn in between so that your internet service provider (ISP) cannot read which site you are entering.
VPN and Proxy Working Test
How to Use?
1
Go to Test Screen
As soon as you visit the page, our servers ping your device's IP address and read the node.
2
Security Protocol Analysis
It is investigated whether the incoming signal comes from a standard Telecom Operator (ISP) or whether it belongs to Known VPN Data Centers.
3
Read Status Report
The tool displays a result sign on the screen saying (You Are Safe / VPN Active) or (You Are Not Hidden / Real IP Detection).
What is this tool for?
IP Leak Disease
Many free VPN applications on the market actually surrender your real IP and location to the state/sites by having (DNS Leaks). Therefore, testing is a must.
Difference Between Proxy and VPN
Proxy only changes location at the browser (Chrome) level but does not protect the rest of the computer. VPN, on the other hand, covers the entire device and encrypts every movement, including banking.
Why Are We Caught?
Censoring companies like Netflix blacklist the server computer IPs used by famous VPN companies (NordVPN, ExpressVPN etc.) in their databases and ban entries.
When should you use this?
Test Your Security: Do Free VPNs Really Work?
Many people use VPNs to bypass social media bans (like Twitter/Instagram) or to access geo-blocked content (like Netflix US). But is your 'Free VPN' actually hiding you?
VPN Leak Test Tool
Our tool checks if your real IP address is still visible to servers despite using a VPN. If the tool can still see your actual location, your VPN is failing to protect you.
VPN vs. Proxy
While a VPN creates an encrypted 'pipe' for all system traffic, a Proxy often only masks browser traffic without encryption. A VPN (using protocols like OpenVPN or WireGuard) is much safer for privacy.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this test accurate?
Yes, it detects IP leaks, DNS leaks, and WebRTC leaks that often expose your identity.
Should I use a free VPN?
We generally recommend paid, reputable providers, as free ones often leak data or sell user logs.
Frequently Asked Questions
Some low-quality or incorrectly configured VPN connections leak data (Split Tunneling Error). If you only encrypt specific sites and still enter other sites (like ToolboxTR) with your real home internet, the test fails.
No. Due to our institutional policy, IP addresses are scanned for a second, shown on the test screen, and permanently deleted from the system memory (No-Log Policy).
If your company takes you out to the internet through an Intranet tunnel for security purposes, our IP query server may throw a 'Using Proxy / Corporate VPN' warning by accepting that you are coming from the Datacenter.
When connecting with the operator (Turkcell etc.) from mobile devices, since your IP address comes duplicated via NAT (Pool IP), the tool will naturally say 'VPN Connection Not Detected' unless you have set up a special VPN.
