Router thinks I'm in the UK for certain Apps. I'm not.
I have seen this mentioned this elsewhere, but no helpful answers.
Now TV and Channel 4 app think I'm in the UK. I ain't. I'm in Rep of Ireland.
Not using a VPN.
I've done all the router reset, powered off/on etc, all the usual suspects.
They work on mobile data, they work on other wifi networks I've tried, but on my Xbox one S, my iphone 8 & iphone X, it seems, are in the UK. They ain't.
I talked to a Sky service person, but I don't really think she understood me. She asked me to refresh Apps on my Sky Q box, but I'm not sure how that helps. I did do that incidentally.
Something has corrupted somewhere.
Contract is up in 7 weeks. At least that.
Any help appreciated, but this does seem to have happened to many others.

Hi,
I think I saw on another thread this is resolved now, is it still happening ?

Re: Router thinks I'm in the UK for certain Apps. I'm not.
Hi there, thanks for the reply. It does seem to have sorted itself in the last few hours. I unplugged the router for a few hours (again), maybe that did something this time. Curiously, the Now Tv devices log-in list says that I logged in from Ireland and Southwark UK at the same time. I didn't 🤔
So it does seem to have resolved, if not fully. Cheers Rocketman
