I am trying to use sshuttle to disguise my IP address, however without success. I use the command

sshuttle -r <user>@<remote_server> 0.0.0.0/0 -e "ssh -i /home/felix/.ssh/id_rsa" --exclude <remote_server> --dns -v

If I check my IP at https://www.iplocation.net/ is shows the server IP. However, if I use https://www.whatismyip.com/, they still show my computer IP and IP location.

How is this possible? And what can I do to really disguise my IP robustly?

There are no error messages in the terminal where sshuttle runs, not even when I use more -v.

I found the solution: By default, sshuttle only tunnels IPv4 requests. www.whatismyip.com, however, evaluates the IPv6 address. To also tunnel IPv6 traffic, I had to change the command to

sshuttle -r <user>@<server> 0.0.0.0/0 -e "ssh -i /home/felix/.ssh/id_rsa" --exclude <server> -v --method tproxy

It only worked after I compiled a huge list of modules into my kernel, not sure which of them were really required. Definitely the socket modules for IPv6.

For me it worked, if you pass all connections as subnets, i.e.:

sshuttle -r <user>@<server> 0/0

0/0 also includes IPv6.
