Might want to ask this thread to be deleted as you already started a thread on this topic
The other thread was asking something specific. This is more of a question for everyone.
Seriously though, i understand, but i seem to get more replies asking me not to double post or to delete a thread.. Its not like im spamming.
Thanks
For Geo Location to work, I believe one of two things will need to be in place.
I've found Geo Location to be less than accurate because it depends on information about the IP from I.E Whois.
My 2¢
Hi David,
Just the guy i really wanted to hear from.. We've had some discussion back in the day on the openwrt forum for wrt1900...
So i've setup the iptables geoip setup based on this: https://tokyobreeze.wordpress.com/2015/01/30/block-incoming-connection-from-all-ip-of-a-country-in-router/
The geo IP database is created on a linux computer e.g ubuntu and then the database files "LE" and "BE" folders containing the .iv4 and .iv6 are copied over to the router. These files look to be encrypted..as the county IPs dont show up in clear text. So while my iptables command is not complaining about anything, i am wondering, is it simply not able to read these files?
What are your thoughts?
