NETworkManager Visual traceroute

Would be great having a graphical map representation of hops around the world.

Any idea how to do this? Are there public services available where i can check the geolocation of an ip address?

GeoLite2 is one of possible solution

No idea, sorry.

Visual traceroute might not be possible at this moment, but at least the geolocation of an ip would be nice.

I could implement a function to check an ip agains ipify.org (this is the same i use to determine the public ip).

The user needs to get an api key (1k request free / month) and can store it in the settings. https://geo.ipify.org/pricing

@nicolafarina @RafalNiewinski would this be an option?

Thanks for considering @BornToBeRoot but I suppose that, if no free full database, this can be much less useful than what we though. I honestly think that development in this feature is not meaningful.

I also think that this is not crucial. Maybe someday there will be idea with a better solution.

@RafalNiewinski @nicolafarina better late than never. Here is a preview of the Geo-IP API in Traceroute (no graphic map, but all infos): Traceroute_Geo_Preview

Will be available in the next release 🥳
