What should I do if the IP detection result does not match the region where I purchased the extraction?

When checking on certain IP testing sites, the results may not match the region you selected at the time of purchase.

We recommend that you head over to ipinfo.io and check it out.

 

The reasons for the inconsistencies are set out below:

1. Data sources

Different IP detection websites may rely on different data sources to obtain IP address information. These data sources may include Internet Service Providers (ISPs), geolocation databases, lists of public proxies, and so on. As a result, test results may vary.

 

2. Data processing algorithms

The methods and algorithms used to process and analyse IP address information may differ from one IP detection website to another, and these algorithms may take into account factors such as geographic location, anonymity, proxy servers, and so on. As a result, the algorithms of different websites may produce different detection results, even when using the same data source.

 

3. Frequency of updates

IP address information may change. For example, an IP address may belong to a specific geographic location at one point in time, but may have changed at another point in time. If a website updates its data frequently, its detection results may be more accurate.

 

4. Geographic location accuracy

The correspondence between IP address and geographic location is not completely accurate and may be subject to error. Different IP testing websites may use different methods to determine the geographic location of an IP address, so the results may vary.

 

5. Detection technology

IP testing websites may use different techniques to identify IP addresses, such as Ping testing, Traceroute, etc. The use of these techniques may affect the accuracy and precision of the test results.
