I live on the South coast of England but am being routed via France. How can I change this?

I have noticed that recently I have been defaulting to French websites for standard searches.  However, when I tried to use an application for work (Yammer), it was blocked and I've been advised that my ISP is routing me to France.  How can I route through the UK?

Hi Highlander.  The problem seems to have resolved itself after I logged onto Microsoft late morning today; it still considered me in France until that point. 

 

Thanks for that ipaddress tool, that is very interesting and will help me if I need to troubleshoot in the future.

@CosmicBootzPower down your router for 30 minutes to see if it gives you a new public IP.

I powered down for about an hour, but it still seems to be the same.  When I go to Google it returns Google.fr.
