I assume you use a vpn and don't block WebRTC so it picks up the local private address of the vpn.

Anw this leak is irrelevant. It's nothing personal and they already know you use a vpn.

But why 2 different IP address? the private-use is not my real address. web rtc doesn't leak real address?

I assume your vpn has some sort of network lock that blocks your real address from leaking. I am only guessing you are using airvpn, i don't know though.

Can't help then. Never used this vpn but it somehow protects your real ip which is good.
If you are right and it protects my real IP that means this is powerful vpn! :D i feel so happy i got lifetime account with them. :) even pia vpn didn't have this protection when i used them.

Pia has it actually. It has network lock forever now so it should not leak anything at all either.
99% sure pia is better than windscribe even though windscribe might have a better application. Pia application is terrible and sad.

I assume u use also Windscripe browser addon features,hop or something? Proxy? Spoofing,,, it is private internet space and it is safe, because ur desktop client keep ur leak confidental. If you use Air, and test it this site where you test its shows like this => https://i.imgsafe.org/6ed0ac14c0.png all has same ip, altrought im semi-paranoid myself, brushing my vpn addresses :d

I use the browser extension with the desktop client Double Hop protection. Maybe a little slower but better security.

Its more reliability in my opinion when you ip shows same all ipv4 & 6 dns adresses and webrtc and so on. Alltrought it is safe but you are easily reconises spoofing when those leak sites show multible ip's
