is it safe?

[hifiboy]

Hello, I am new user.
I Just chnaged DNS server in router to family protection adgurad DNS servers. I did a DNS leak that returned the followng:

195.181.165.165

unn-165-181-195-165.datapacket.com.

Datacamp Limited

London, United Kingdom

After google search of Datacmap limited : I have following form the below page:

Datacamp Limited - Fraud Check

We consider Datacamp Limited to be a potentially high fraud risk ISP, by which we mean that web traffic from this ISP potentially poses a high risk of being fraudulent. Other types of traffic may pose a different risk or no risk. They operate 310,516 IP addresses, almost all of which are running...

scamalytics.com

"We consider Datacamp Limited to be a potentially very high fraud risk ISP ..........."

I am now worried whether it is something to do my configurations or there is a problem and is it safe to use Adguard?

Hi, we use datapacket.com to host our DNS servers. It's a known and reputable hosting service in contrast to scamalytics that I never heard about.

Why don't you point dns.adguard.com to the real server instead of being secretive?

Does the traffic really go through CYPRUS or the location is virtual?

Is the traffic between dns.adguard.com and datapacket.com encrypted when using DNS over HTTPS?

Edit: Google is hiding this page from the search results.

Datapacket.com is a hosting service that we rent AdGuard DNS servers from.
Any real server is located in some data center owned by some hosting company, that's how it works.

DNS servers are located all over the world, please check out the map on https://adguard-dns.io/

Thanks for the server map. It shows the location of my real server. I was falsely relying on all the geoIP databases that say 94.140.14.14 and 94.140.15.15 are located in Cyprus and I was disapointed when I did the DNS leak test.

Interestingly, when I do a traceroute for both cloudflare's 1.1.1.1 and the real server returned with the DNS leak test, the routes are identical except for the destination, but when I do a traceroute for 94.140.14.14 and datapacket.com's IP address, the routes are completely different excepted for the first hops.

Are the DNS-over-HTTPS connections end-to-end encrypted?

Datapacket's IP belongs to their own Autonomous system and 94.140.14.14 belongs to AdGuard's AS. We use different tweaks for our IP addresses to fix routing issues (i.e. a user routed to some server located far away) so the it's natural that the route for you to our AS is different from Datapacket's.

Are the DNS-over-HTTPS connections end-to-end encrypted?

Sure, just like any other "DNS-over-*" encrypted protocol.
