How to protect DNS ip in some website DNS leak test

Hello everyone,

 

I’ve been looking into ways to secure my DNS IP and prevent leaks when using online DNS leak test tools, such as ipwtf.com. I recently came across NextDNS, which offers encrypted DNS (DoH, DoT) and privacy protection. However, I still see my DNS resolver in some leak tests, and I’d like to fully understand:

1. How do DNS leaks happen, and how does NextDNS help prevent them?

2. Can NextDNS stop EDNS (ECS) leaks that expose my IP range?

3. What are the best settings to use in NextDNS to avoid leaks in DNS tests?

    Dot and Doh protocols encrypt the point-to-point data transport between you and the website. One of the goals of the method is to increase user privacy and security by preventing eavesdropping and manipulation of DNS data through man-in-the-middle attacks during the transfer. Thanks to this encryption, attackers (as well as ISPs) cannot read or modify DNS traffic data. The destination website can see your IP address. Only a VPN can protect it.
