declaimed the following:
Oh, and just for laughs, I tried a few of my recent mobile IP
addresses in the GeoIP lookup. All of them quoted Melbourne someplace,
some in the CBD and some out in the suburbs, but all vastly wrong, and
places I haven't been. But I'd never expect it to be accurate on
those.
Well... the MaxMind demo of "my IP" did get the proper metropolitan
area... But they list the ISP as "AT&T"... My real ISP is Earthlink
(piggybacking on AT&T DSL service).
The Lat/Long, however shows as
42.9634 -85.6681
whereas a recent GPS readout shows
42.9159 -85.5541
or 2m50s too far north, and 6m50s too far west.
Same website, accessed from my Blackberry phone, gave a result of
"United States, NA" and location 38 -97
I have read all your answer very carefully but i still need some way of
getting it done.
All my Greek website visitors say they are from Europe/Athens which is
the ISP's location and not user's homeland.
Well it worked for me but as many other told me it wasn't accurate for
them too.
Please try this: http://www.maxmind.com/en/geoip_demo
and tell me if maxmind's database can pippont you city's location.
Thank you.
