Message

I am using Open DNS: 208.67.222.222; 208.67.220.220; 8.8.8.8;

In the file

/etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf.

. I have already edited to:

prepend domain-name-servers 208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220, 8.8.8.8;

Then re-started the computer and also the network manager manually.

cat /etc/resolv.conf

Gives name server as

208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220, 8.8.8.8

But when i do the DNS leak test on the website then it still shows me my real address.

What am I missing ???

DNS is a system that will resolve IP-addresses of website and has nothing to do with hiding yourself.
