Originally submitted this to bug reports in the dedicated discord channel but was redirected here.

Im using Mysterium on 2 home Windows 10 computers at my home address which utilizes Xfinity/Comcast Internet 5G. When i try to connect to a node in Mysterium 7/10 times the app implies i connected successfully and my connection is secure but the IP displayed as the node im connected to is my own IP. I do IP Config in the console to confirm each time before continuing any web activity also. A majority of the time Mysterium will connect me to my own IP and display my own IP as the node im connected to. To solve this i must disconnect and re-connect to different nodes multiple times before i can get an IP that isnt my own. Its essentially connecting me to myself 7/10 tries. I have been using the app the last 3 days (10+ hour days) and this has been my experience so far. Must be a bug of some sort. I tested it on both my computers and made sure to only run it on one computer at a time and still the same issue. I am not running any other network software that is not default to windows.

Let me know if u need any more info or would like a vid recording of the issue. (Just dont want to share my IP from the recording in a bug report so a dedicated email thread would be needed)

Cheers.
