Aliexpress always defaults me to USA until I login. I’d never thought about it but i guess it’s due to the geo location issue.

Been with Yayzi for almost a month now and so far I haven’t had many issues with Geolocation. However, I recently noticed 2 things:

  • Google thinks I’m in Austria - I’ve already submitted a report to them to see if they can change it. This seems to be a recent change - originally was correct.
  • ipligence - which someone posted further up - thinks I’m in Italy. And I’ve had at least one site think so too, but it wasn’t geoblocking so no real issue. None of the usual suspects have caused any problems so far.

Neither of these is causing me any issues, so sharing more for information.

First 3 octets of IP are 79.135.100.xxx

Thanks!

I have noticed that too, however it doesn’t seem to be having any issues with the catch-up programs

Still all over the show with most of the IP Geo databases.

154.60.95.X

We’ve got a published geofeed now which providers should start using, makes things a lot easier to clean up.

We have another 1k IPs in cleaning currently.

BBC Iplayer & more is no longer accessible for us, on both Smart TV & Laptop, this happened just earlier today. Saying i’m ā€œoutside of the UKā€ this has been a problem for us attempting to use the Channel 4 App since we switched to Yayzi and it’s now getting worse!

I’ve seen this has been a topic of discussion for months so why is it getting worse? Really annoying for our first month with no sign of improvement…

What WAN network subnet are you on?

Drop [email protected] an email. They should be able to help.

We’ve just reached out to BBC to get this resolved.

Luckily they’re quick at sorting!

And just yesterday BBC has started serving the International website to me with no Iplayer … 149.18.87.* … for god’s sake will this never be resolved ?

We have a published geofeed that databases are supposed to be using now.

It’s like a never ending cycle, we’ve asked them to ignore any other requests, or geofeed that isn’t originating from a Yayzi domain.

Similar here: I’m getting redirected to https://www.bbc.com/ since my IP changed to the 154.56.255.* range

My BBC News is now supplying the north-america stream:

Also disconcerting to see weather forecasts from around the world with temperatures in Fahrenheit :wink:

My ip range is the same as the poster above 154.56.255 and am having the same issues.
It was fine until Thursday night when my router rebooted itself and put me on a new range, despite supposedly having a static ip.

Something else weird was that in signing up to this forum, the activation wouldn’t send to my Hotmail address, despite a number of tries.
As soon as I switched to gmail, it was fine.
This is probably unconnected but thought I’d mention it.

I believe you was on a 149.X previous which isn’t static, we have a pool of dynamic only IPs.

So everyone that is supposed to have a static has one. This is from a new range that has been provided directly by cogent who have now updated their geo database to use our geofeed. We’ve been assured by that this will propagate quite quickly :crossed_fingers:

The Hotmail issue is unrelated, I believe for some reason the discord software is blocking. We are looking into it but admittedly it’s not high up the priority list just yet :slightly_smiling_face:

Well I am supposed to have a static IP with my package. Is the 149 range still dynamic ?

A static IP is included but should be requested. Not everyone wants a static address. The 149’s are still dynamic.

We will be making some changes so we can resolve the geo issues much quicker but we can’t implement it over the weekend.

So we will schedule a maintenance window for it :slightly_smiling_face:
