Server location database seems out of date...

Open oldrup opened this issue 6 years ago • 2 comments

Server IP : 195.201.83.226 Server Location : Saint Petersburg, Russia

Real location is in Germany.

MaxMind geo-location update required?

Thanks for a nice plugin :) Bjarne

IP2Location has the IP address 195.201.83.226 correct https://www.ip2location.com/demo/195.201.83.226

Any plan to implement the free IP2Location LITE in wp-server-stats?

@oldrup Hi, thanks for dropping the issue. First of all, the plugin doesn't use MaxMind geo0location database, instead, it uses a location API provided by ip-api.com and as per my search: http://www.ip-api.com/#195.201.83.226 it is showing that your IP location is in Russia. I think it's some issue with their system, feel free to report this issue to ip-api.com

@m-cameron No, because the limit they provide on the lite plan is quite low. But I'm always open to using some other service which has a higher free limit, provide an accurate result and free.
