Hi there,
I've been having some trouble with connecting to internet due to incorrect IP address location. My laptop is on a Windows 10.
1. I tried browsing but connecting to a website took a fairly long time and it lead me to an another country's version of that website.
2. I tried to look up my IP address and it showed that it was somehow in Czech Republic even though I am currently in Indonesia.
3. Accessing google.com also lead me to a Czech version of the website.
4. What I have noticed is that when I tried to disconnect from my Wi-Fi and tether from my phone instead, I was able to browse normally and my IP address is back to Indonesia.
5. This had me think if the problem was sourced from the router. However, none of my other devices connected to this Wi-Fi has this problem.
6. Weird thing is, if my phone is connected to the Wi-Fi and I set my laptop to tether from my phone, it's working fine as well. So it's having this problem only if it connects directly to the Wi-Fi.
Some of the measures I have tried:
1. Ran malware scan and found 0 issues.
2. Rebooted router, issue still persists.
3. I even tried resetting my laptop (with the option of keeping all my files), but issue remains.
Also, I had an update on my Windows 10 a couple days ago. The next time I tried to browse the internet, this happened. I'm not sure if the update was a factor into this, but thought you should know about this as well.
Looking forward to your help and assistance.
Thanks
