My deco mesh has for some reason set my network location to spain
So for several months now our deco mesh has set our network location to Spain for some reason. We are in Sweden. After contacts with our internet-company and even google sine the commercials are in spanish. Nothing works, but today I connected my laptop directly to the box in the house to get internet directly without the deco units, and now it's in sweden!
Please, what's going on with the mesh? We are so tired of this problem. And how do we change it? I can't find anything in the app that says the location of the network

Yeah well but the spanish location is when deco is involved. An swedish ip is still in sweden even if it's not locally in my city. So I'm not buying that deco has nothing to do with this....

Ok so I was wrong before. Called my isp and the ports in the "box" are not configured like you said. It's an CPE box they said.
And before I was testing the cable in a wrong port, hence the weard ip.
So, all testing done and it's when using deco network the location is wrong. When using cable in box everything is fine.
Can we test something more in deco? My isp said that cloning my MAC-adress into main deco could be something to do

Hi,Here was a story which has decribed this issue and it also provided some suggestions:

Personally I don't think the MAC clone helps since the public IP address on the Deco is in Sweden.
Thank you very much and best regards.

Hello,
So today I tried our network with another router, again. This time with an Asus, and location is finally correct!
So when I tried with another router from tp-link, it was still wrong location. But with router from other brand, it was correct. And this problem has been going on since almost half a year now, if this "database" with BSSID you're talking about that upgrades the location after a while it should have happend now, right?
To me, it seems I can't use tp-link anymore. What's you're thoughts regarding above?
