Wrong IP location in Opera browser

Fri Jun 25, 2021 9:18 pm

I use Opera browser. After connection to VPN, it shows country connection Netherlands (ipleak.net). I can connect to any country, but it always shows Netherlands.
Other browsers work normally.

If I remember correctly, the proxy in the Opera browser has a Netherlands location.

Check if the Opera proxy is enabled and connected to the Netherlands location.

We've done this because Opera has a built in VPN, and as we were getting abuse notifications from some of our hosting providers and didn't know how they were being done, we had to include Opera to be directed to a torrent friendly country. We'll continue to do this until we figure out how to separate the VPN from Opera.
