One simple way to check is doing a trace route of the IP and see which route it takes… Usually that gives you an idea where the location is :P
As stated above, the updates by GeoIP sites take awhile. Once their own cache of the data expires they have to do it again. Digital Ocean staff can tell you if that IP is definitely registered in a specific geolocation, but only the reporting facility can update its database, and do so correctly. That has nothing to do with DO. I’m seeing this in irc channels about misreporting and it being blamed on DO, which is not the case. Thus why I’m speaking up.
Hi,
I can assure you that the droplet is definitely located in London. Some GeoIP databases are slower to update than others. For instance, IPLocation.net provides results based on four seperate GeoIP databases. I just check the IP of a London based droplet, and two service correctly placed it in London while two placed it in the United States. Different sites employ different techniques to determine the location of an IP address. Unfortunately, there isn’t much that can be done except waiting until they update.
