Independent network research
Understand the route. See the exposure. Choose with evidence.
Aerod connects VPN and proxy research, internet-security guidance, and focused browser tools without turning a single signal into an exaggerated claim.
Research pillars
Start with the question behind the connection.
Three focused libraries separate private-routing decisions, proxy infrastructure, and broader internet-security risks.
Private routing
VPN research
Compare routes, protocols, provider claims, limits, and the situations where a VPN does or does not change the risk.
Network intermediaries
Proxy research
Understand proxy types, trust boundaries, selection criteria, operating risks, and practical configuration choices.
Defensive practice
Internet security
Follow evidence-backed coverage of browser exposure, defensive security, incident response, and online risk.
Twelve-node index
Move through the research as one connected system.
Every path leads to a real library, decision guide, evidence record, standard, or working tool.
Selected research
Begin with a practical decision, not a product promise.
These starting points connect browser and network observations to real configuration choices, evidence, and limitations.
Focused tools
Measure one signal, then return to the research.
Aerod’s apps stay deliberately narrow: they show the current browser or network signal and link back to the guidance needed to interpret it.
IP Lookup & What's My IP
Public IP and network context
Check the public IP address your browser is using or look up a public IPv4 or IPv6 address for approximate network and location context.
- Your public IP
- IPv4 / IPv6 lookup
- ISP, ASN, and location
Runs from the Aerod app route with the IP Lookup runtime hosted in this repository.
WebRTC Leak Test
Browser connection candidates
Review WebRTC ICE candidates for readable public IPs, private addresses, hostnames, or mDNS-obfuscated connection details.
Torrent IP Leak Test
Torrent client route comparison
Create a private, short-lived test and compare the IP address announced by your torrent client with the public route visible to this browser.
Browser Permissions & Privacy Settings Check
Browser privacy surface
Review browser permissions, storage access, locale, timezone, and privacy-control observations without triggering deeper network or fingerprint tests.
Browser Fingerprint Check — powered by Creep++
Fingerprinting surface
Inspect rendering, WebGL, audio, fonts, locale, storage, permissions, client hints, and browser-consistency signals.
VPN & Proxy Consistency Check
Connection consistency review
Review route and mismatch signals that can appear when a proxy, VPN, browser, timezone, DNS, WebRTC, or account context disagree.
Proxy Rotation & Sticky Session Monitor
Route stability over time
Observe whether a configured proxy route stays on one public IP or rotates during a bounded session, with an optional advanced explicit-proxy mode.
Online Webcam Test
Camera and microphone diagnostics
Preview your webcam, check microphone input, choose media devices, and create local photo or audio samples in the browser.
Method
Observe, interpret, then decide.
A repeatable path keeps one browser result, provider claim, or incident headline from becoming the whole conclusion.
Identify the signal.
Start with the route, browser surface, provider claim, or defensive question that can actually be checked.
Read the boundary.
Separate what the evidence supports from what remains unknown, contextual, or dependent on another layer.
Choose the next action.
Compare options, change one variable, document the result, and repeat the check when the context changes.
FAQ
Know what each result can—and cannot—tell you.
Quick answers about the live tools, browser permissions, result scope, and commercial links.
Which Aerod tool should I use first?
Use IP Lookup when you need public IP, ISP, ASN, and approximate location context. Use WebRTC Leak Test for connection candidates, Browser Leak Test for browser-exposure signals, Browser Fingerprint Check for fingerprintable characteristics, Proxy/VPN Detection for route consistency, and Online Webcam Test for camera and microphone checks.
Do Aerod tools prove that I am anonymous or fully secure?
No. Each tool reports a limited set of signals from the current browser or network session. The result helps you review a configuration, but it cannot represent every website, device, account, extension, resolver, or future session.
Does the Online Webcam Test upload camera or microphone media?
The app is designed to preview camera and microphone input in the browser. Photos and short audio samples stay local unless you choose to download them. Browser permission is required before either device can be used.
How are commercial provider links handled?
Some proxy and VPN pages contain sponsored links. Aerod discloses those links and keeps commercial actions separate from technical criteria, limitations, source notes, and app results.
