How to prevent IP leak while using proxy on browser?

edwardgrove · Jan 18, 2024

I've added proxy on my firefox browser.

But I can see this warning!
Warning! Your Browsers WebRTC is leaking your IP Address. We recommend you to do a WebRTC Test

Then I do google with this warning.

I got solution that media. peerconnection. enabled should be false.

I make this false but still the warning not going.

You can disable WEBRTC through extention. If you're using chrome, you can install the WebRTC Control plugin to turn off your browser monitoring. or suggest to use isolated secure antidetect profile with canvas fingerprint that can avoid webRTC leak, even leaked it won't be your real GEO.

WebRTC may reveal your real IP address, even if you have set up a proxy. This is because WebRTC allows direct P2P (peer-to-peer) communication, bypassing proxy settings. So you can use vpn or morelogin to work around this.

You set exactly this value "media.peerconnection.enabled" via "about:config" to false, right? Not any other "peerconnection" value by mistake?

I just tried it with Firefox 121.0.1 on macOS, works for me.

Which tool did you use to check the WebRTC setting?

I'm using ip8 dot com to check it.
