Ip address showing wrong location
My broadband and phone line were recently fixed and since then my ip location shows as London. Now, this wouldn't be an issue, except i have apps which will only show live TV in Scotland, where i am loacted. I have turned off the router for 30mins and rebooted and it is still the same. How can this be rectified? TIA

Re: Ip address showing wrong location
Make a note of your IP before you switch off the router and then check it against the new one you should be issued when the hub is switched back on. I say this because Sky IPs can sometimes be quite sticky and will require a hub switch off of more than an hour.
