Not a Texan

Re: IP address moved to Lubbock, Texas???

Well, GeoIP has been astoundingly correct for years in my situation... from Google to speed tests (any testing site I've ever used). It's never been wrong. It's never presented a problem for me, until this week when every website that uses GeoIP began thinking I'm a Texan.

If you know how to tell Google my location, please let me know. Google, presumably, has years of usage data to overwhelmingly suggest a location for me, right down to the name of my street. A whole lot of what websites do seems to be based on guessing location based on IP.

Not the same ISP as you but I've had the same STATIC IP address block (/29) for years and some places STILL don't get it right.

So yeah, as SDL already said, they probably just added a new IP block to the CMTS which you are now pulling from. Those companies will "eventually" update so do your location stuff manually.
