Using a VPN

I recently bought and installed a VPN (virtual private network).

I used it a few times then while I was supposedly in another country I got a popup advertising a pension plan for people living in Manchester, my home town.

 

So how did it know I was in Manchester and not in that other country?

Hi Chas, I got in touch and got a lady on, tested everything and it seems I had a DNS leak.

So to cut it short I ended up doing a few entries in the cmd prompt then changing the DNS in my router.

Did a speed test and it has made a difference there, my internet is going very fast now but not sure if the leek is still there.
