Ubuntu 18.04 another DNS server

By John Parsons

In Settings -> Network -> Wired -> Configuration Properties -> Default Route and DNS are shown DNS, given by my provider. When I go to websites my DNS numbers started to be different, DNS leak site says that my DNS is from Google, but it's not my own that was given by my Provider.

I don't understand why in my Settings menu it shows the DNS given by my Provider, but sites say that it's not? I did nothing to change DNS. I don't even know how to do it, because I'm new to Ubuntu, but I want to understand who or which application changes my DNS settings to Google all the time?

From a dns leak test if you are connected to the net via a vpn the listed dns servers should all be the ones supplied by your vpn if there are other dns servers listed it means you have a dns leak if your not connected via vpn then don’t worry about them they are just the servers your isp’s dns sever was routed to.
