Hey Paschal, I've had this same issue previously with some geolocation DBs not reflecting locations correctly. I managed to fix the issue by maintaining a public RFC8805 <https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8805> geofeed and submitting it to the various DB providers via email and allowing them to poll it frequently for any updates. Here are a majority of the emails you would need to contact with your published geofeed, if you choose to implement one:
- supp...@db-ip.com - supp...@ip2location.com - supp...@ipgeolocation.io - correct...@maxmind.com - ip-d...@digitalenvoy.net - ipintel@support.neustar - priv...@ipapi.co - supp...@bigdatacloud.com Feel free to use the following template using the subject of "Geofeed for <ASN>" which I successfully used to have the above providers update their databases (with a majority of updates published within a week or so): Hello, > > Please use this geofeed for our IPs going forward. > > <Link_to_published_geofeed> > > Thanks. Hope this information helps accomplish what you need!
