🛰️ DNS Leak Test & Resolver Inspector

Query the same hostname through four major public DNS-over-HTTPS resolvers — Cloudflare, Google, Quad9, AdGuard — and compare answers side-by-side. Divergent results reveal filtering, censorship, or hijacking on at least one path. All requests happen directly from your browser to each provider.

🧠 How to read the results

🛡️ For a true OS-level DNS leak test

Detecting which resolver your operating system uses when an application makes a normal lookup requires a logging DNS server on the receiving end — something a pure-browser page cannot provide. After running the comparison above, the next step is a server-backed test:

Those services trigger real DNS lookups from your OS to randomized subdomains they control, then show which resolver IPs asked.

❓ FAQ

What does this tool actually test?

The same hostname is sent through four public DNS-over-HTTPS resolvers (Cloudflare, Google, Quad9, AdGuard) directly from your browser. Side-by-side answers tell you whether they all see the same DNS world or something on a path is rewriting answers.

Is this a true DNS leak test?

Not the OS-level kind. The OS-level test needs a logging DNS server. This page tests the next-most-useful thing: are public DoH resolvers consistent for the names you care about, and is anything filtering or hijacking those names? After running it, use a server-backed test for the OS-level check.

Does FunWithText see what I query?

No. The browser talks directly over HTTPS to each DoH endpoint. The DoH provider necessarily sees the query — that is what DNS-over-HTTPS is — but FunWithText is not in the path.

Why does one provider answer with NXDOMAIN or 0.0.0.0?

That provider is filtering. Quad9 blocks malware and phishing. AdGuard blocks ads and trackers. A divergent NXDOMAIN or 0.0.0.0 is almost always a blocklist hit, not an outage.
