I’ve used many geo location plugins which detect the user’s ip address and then check the user’s country, but everyone of them is showing that i’m in the USA, even though i’m not. is this something you have facebd before?, and how can i fix it. the api also returns an ip address which i do not recognize.  
Note that i’m not using a vpn or anything of that sort.

Check your IP address with another site like **what is my IP**.

If it shows US, then it’s you.

If it doesn’t show US, then maybe something is wrong with your IP collection? It may be defaulting to some value and not showing an error.
