I Downloaded Gl-Tor Firmware to my GL-M300N-V2 and I start tor but it is leaking DNS, how do I adjust it to not Leak dns, do the routers that come preinstalled with tor leak dns as well this is a major issue. I need help as fast as possible

What do you have defined under Custom DNS Server ?

How do you determine it leaking DNS?

Tor should use the DNS of the exit node.

I use a free DNS leak test and my VPN has a page where we can test leaks. Leaking on both. What do I have to do to fix the issue I bought to use TOR useless if it leaks.

Nothing as tor should handle DNS requests by default.

Tor doesnā€™t have a DNS to enter.

I can use cloud fair or another privacy DNS but that would be a privacy risk.

I want tor to handle the DNS request. How can this be done ?

Confused. If you use Tor, you cannot use vpn to detect your dns leak because it is Tor exit node DNS working for you.

Well, letĀ“s say I tested too my new GL.inet ARM300, with TOR firmware from official GL-inet page, and there is a DNS leakā€¦
Tested wth three diferent services:

All of them are telling me I have a ā€œvery remoteā€ IP (different countries) but my DNS provider is always my ISPā€¦

Any idea?

I agree, I used many ā€˜ā€™ DNSā€™ā€™ 'VPN Leak tests. And leaks on them all. I dont know if I can trust this company.

Can you leave the default DNS settings to the default and start tor again?
