Why does my home internet gateway list my location as Detroit when my location is 4 hours away in Ohio? It’s not ideal when searching online for “places near me.”
I have the same problem, I live in Cincinnati, Oh and google searches near me show Columbus, Oh or Philadelphia, Pa , or it could be anywhere. When I am streaming with Roku, it thinks I am either in Cleveland, Oh or Detroit, Mi and get the "local" comercials. I tried to watch NHL game the other night streaming using Roku and ESPN+, showed game was blacked-out in my area. Again, it thought I was streaming from Detroit area.
I have contacted T-mobile wireless internet support (what a misnomer), said that they are aware of the problem. I don't know if they can fix the issue or if they will even try.
Does anybody know if Verizon wireless internet has the same issues? I looked into Starry, but no service in Cincinnati area.
