Is Unlocator VPN good?

Does Unlocator smart DNS work?

Oh dear, what have I done? I've just tried the Unlocator service and I have discovered that it isn't working. I have read on the internet that it is possible to trick a registrar into thinking that a domain can be found on my IP address. Is this true, where can I find/learn more?

Use unlocator.com to lookup any IP address, like 1.2.3.4. They state that they scan up to the first 8 results in Google, so that should be enough.

Here is a video tutorial on how to use it: See if you can find your IP address there. If you find that it websites at the listed address are able to find it, then all is well. If not, you may need to look into changing your IP address.

It is not possible to change your IP address. If you are behind a nat/proxy, you might be able to change your router's settings, but there is no way to modify the IP address without rebooting the router, which may result in a loss of connectivity.

You may have a software firewall on your machine which is filtering the requests. I don't know of a firewall that will let you modify your IP address like that, but you can disable your firewall temporarily to see if that makes a difference.

Black Hole isn't working for me, since the IP address I was using didn't work for them either. I just tried unlocator and I saw my IP address listed. I fired up Malewarebytes, checked my browser and clicked the Unlocator icon, and got the same 1 page of results. I hosted this website here for a while, but when I tried it from this IP it started working. I doubt my ISP would block my IP too, there are good reasons they just don't.

I am not behind a NAT Router, and I've tried a ton of different browsers, and the issue is consistent. I understand I may be the only one who has tried this, but I'd like to know if it works for others.

So far it doesn't look like it will work for me. It would be a real shame if it was the only method of finding websites on the internet.
