I'm completely stuck and urgently need help with my IP Lookup Tool. For the past few hours, the integrated geolocation API has been consistently returning incorrect country data for multiple IP addresses.

Has anyone encountered this specific issue or have any immediate troubleshooting steps I can try?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Charlotte Miller, this often points to an upstream data issue or caching problem. Try these immediate troubleshooting steps:
  • Verify your geolocation API provider's status page for any reported outages or data integrity issues affecting country data.
  • Clear any local DNS caches or application-level caches that might be holding stale IP address accuracy information.
  • Cross-reference the problematic IPs using a well-known independent geo-IP data service like MaxMind or IPinfo.io to confirm the expected country.
Hope this helps your operations!
