Hello,

I am helping a small Service Provider in Sweden and we have some issues wit=
h IP addresses having the wrong country in geolocation. They show up as Nor=
wegian even though they should be Swedish. The site we have most problems w=
ith and try to solve is HBO. Can anyone maybe give some input as to how HBO=
 update their geolocation info? Maybe a certain geolocation provider?

We have contacted RIPE and they have acknowledged our addresses in the RIPE=
 database as correctly setup with country object as SE. Furthermore the geo=
location providers/sites we checked which show the correct info are ip2loca=
tion, amakai, maxmind, ipinfo.io and EurekAPI.

If anyone from HBO see this mail I would appreciate an off list response.

Best regards Lars Andersson, Fiberdata
