iOS 9 has a new feature called "Wi-Fi Assist" that will "automatically
use cellular data when Wi-Fi connectivity is poor".
This will most likely cause those pesky IP checks to fail (even if you
use a /24 or AS check). Geolocation checks will also fail in some cases.
My geolocation when connected to WiFi and when using cellular data are
widely different. WiFi reports the city I'm in while cellular reports
the city that their HQ is in.
