RESULT GUIDE
What this information means
The lookup card shows the network information visible to external services after your browser’s request leaves your local network. It can help confirm whether a route switch took effect, but it does not represent your complete privacy status on its own.
IP
Public IP
This is the address a website sees when it receives your request. After connecting to a VPNDG route, run the lookup before and after switching and compare the results. If the address changes, the current web request is using a different network exit.
LOC
Country or region
The location is based on registration records and geolocation database mappings for the network address; it is not the device’s precise location. Database updates can lag, so the city or region may differ slightly from the actual data center location.
ISP
Internet service provider
This field identifies the network organization associated with the public address. After connecting to a route, the displayed name may belong to a data center, cloud network, or carrier, helping indicate what type of network exit handled the request.
CHK
Proxy detection
The result is based on network characteristics returned by the API. Detection criteria vary between databases, so “not detected” does not provide an additional privacy guarantee, while “detected” does not mean the connection has failed.
