Hi @Pool_Guy, actually I'm not a hockey fan of any sort 😞 But, I do see the complaints of the poor service in the forum. I don't think its ever worked as it should, at least not for the three years or so that I've been in this forum. Personal opinion, someone needs to take the bull by the horns and chase down the signal flow, from camera, to camera truck, thru the various networks, including Rogers, and finally to the end customer. There's probably more than one issue on the go, so, without a complete examination, from end to end, those issues wont' be found or resolved. Personal opinion from the peanut gallery .......
@amreath this is an ongoing problem that customers have to deal with every year. In a nutshell, it requires a Rogers network engineer to generate a database file that can be sent to the various IP Geo-locating companies, and to the NHL streaming company. Last time this was done is probably two to three years ago and the engineer who took it upon himself to do this has since left Rogers. It appears that Rogers moves IP ranges around the network, and as a result, all of the geo-locating company databases fall out of sync as those IP addresses move.
Only thing I can suggest is for one of the mods at @CommunityHelps to get in touch with you in order to pass the relevant details to the required companies. No guarantees here.
It would be much simpler if Rogers could appoint some engineer to this task and see that it occurs on a regular basis throughout the year. Its one of those grey areas, Rogers really doesn't have any responsibility to advise the geo-locating companies of the true location of the network IP addresses and the geo-locating companies can't do their job without the IP to location database that only Rogers holds.
It has nothing to do with the modem itself.
Its all in how the IP addresses are assigned, rotated, etc.
So the ones that are currently been assigned to you, last time the geoip location for that IP was fully updated, it was then probably in London.
Not sure.
At lest emediately, no it shouldn’t. It’s not like it will go from your house, to a node in London. The Rogers network won’t use it at all and knows to route between its own just fine.
Outside of Rogers, hard to say.
If it’s doing an initial dns type resolve might resolve to a different closest server.
Might all depend if that place, what they are using to resolve has the updated location.
