Ad-block check
Is Ping VPN blocking ads right now?
This asks your connection to look up domains that exist only to serve ads. On Ping VPN with ad-blocking turned on, they go nowhere.
Try it once with Ping VPN off, then once connected. That's the whole comparison.
Ad domains we test
Why this result might not match reality
- Only shows DNS-level blocking on a Premium account connected to a server with ad-blocking on. Free accounts and other servers load ads normally.
- A browser sending lookups over DNS over HTTPS routes around the VPN's resolver; turn that off for an accurate read here.
- Your own ad blocker or a browser's built-in tracking protection (Brave, Firefox strict mode) can report blocks with no VPN involved. Test with extensions off for a clean result.
- Ads served from the same domain as the page, like YouTube's, cannot be caught this way. DNS blocking only stops requests to a separate ad domain.
