Can anyone recommend a geo-location service with high city accuracy? Maxmind, for most countries (broadband, which does move) is below 50% accuracy (they claim 68% accuracy for USA cities): https://www.maxmind.com/en/geoip2-city-accuracy-comparison?country=&resolution=city&cellular=excluding Thanks, Hank

What is the purpose of the geo-locating? As that might influence how much it actually matters where the user is... Greets, Jeroen
You can try IPInsight.io. We've been using it for years and its accuracy is better than MaxMind, usually. On Tue, Oct 19, 2021 at 8:28 PM Jeroen Massar via NANOG <nanog@nanog.org> wrote:
