All: Very helpful. Another also helped me track down that Ookla uses MaxMind.com for their GeoIP data. I was able to submit a GeoIP location correction request. A guy at speedtest.net suggested that MaxMind may pay me no mind because my upstream ISP may need to submit the request. That makes perfect sense to me, but it doesn’t hurt to try I hope. Thanks NANOG!

My customers are running speedtests from Ookla's speedtest.net <http://speedtest.net> site. The default site is in Kansas and not in Texas where we receive our internet connection. Questions: 1. How do I go about viewing the geo-coded data that accompanies my IP addresses? This is obviously a database that is kept for geo-coding purposes. The whois info for the block in question traces back to a superblock formerly owned by PSINet, Inc and has a Washington, DC address. I conclude that the geo-coding used by speedtest.net <http://speedtest.net> is not from the whois database. 2. If I pestered my carrier to SWIP the IP address block to me (as they should have?) would that help me solve my problem? 3. Is there anything else I need to be thinking of that would help me have better control of my geo-coding info? Are there third-party self sign up/volunteer database which house geo-coding info?
