When I looked up my ip address on this website: http://www.ip-adress.com/, it shows my city as Hagaman, NY instead of Scottsdale, AZ as it should be. Whats the matter here?

I'm located in Wichita apparently, yet I live in New Mexico. Its probably just where your ISP's hub is.

Nothing to see here, move along.

haha mine is correct, n3wbs.

(Well close, it shows me as Post Falls, when in fact I'm in Coeur D' Alene, but it's only about 5 minute drive from here.

The pointer is right on the state capitol building, which is about 6-7 miles away from where I actually live.

Do you have lots of Nazis? Haha, I had like four friends in SOI from Coeur D' Alene. My family is from Jerome, in the south though. Nice place, sort of.

eh, I never noticed. But my roommate says yes. (She's lived here a bit longer than me)

(not exactly Nazi's but white supremacists for sure)

It missed me by a lot.

It claimed that I was up near Eureka, Ca, but that's a looooooong way from Long Beach.

That makes it you and TimeWolf.

I wonder how this is supposed to work

2007-07-01, 7:27 PM #15
The only thing I can think of is that Time Warner is routing me through Wichita. That seems pretty retarded since Time Warner is supposed to be an internet service provider.

And it's not like I'm a few miles away. I'm in OHIO.

Says I'm in Haifa, and I'm in Tel Aviv - off by about 150 miles. Google Analytics gets a much more accurate reading.

It says I'm in Espoo, Finland. That's not far from where I actually am, which is Helsinki.
Looks like we're not going down after all, so nevermind.

Mine was off by about 100 miles, putting me up somewhere in the North of England.

apparently i live on a dirt road about a kilometer or so northwest of the north end of the runway of canberra international airport. Oh well, at least i am not placed in queanbeyan like it looked like it did with the small image. (local joke, you need to live in canberra, and have lived here for a while and kept up with local politics, to be able to get it)

Russellville, Arkansas?

That's only about 1,000+ miles off.

WTF.

I just looked at the satellite picture and it shows me not at my house, but at one of the parks that I take girls to.

I am really panicked now...

Well, I live in King of Prussia and the site thinks I live in Philadelphia:

I would say it is not too far off.

Sites like that, and others, such as HostIP and MaxMind's GeoIP use a database of IP range to isp/city/state/long/lat pairings. I find those databases to be wrong about ~25% of the time, as such ranges are in somewhat of a flux as ISPs changes how they are utilizing IP address blocks.

Fortunately, in HostIP's case, if they are wrong, you can correct them.
And when the moment is right, I'm gonna fly a kite.
