Title: Servers showing as European
Post by: __Tru__ on Thursday, January 26, 2017, 09:45:53 AM
I am trying to inquire why when we set up a couple of servers, they are both showing as European servers? Is there a way to change this to American Servers? Preferably Near the Chicago and New York areas.

Thanks,

-=NAM=-Tru

That really depends on your host provider. If its based in europe, the server will, most likely, be european. You need to ask on your provider if he can provide vps in america. Chances are that it wont and you need to find one who does.

~Edit~
btw, is NAM getting back on its feet? I miss that clan. Good fights back in the day.

If your server is indeed in the US, it will show up with a flag from Europe if the IP is mapped wrongly in certain websites. Your server provider should take care of it if you tell them you've got a problem, but it might take a while.

what is your server IP Address? whera does it appear as Euro, at Assist client or at Battletracker.com?
perharps our(Assist) GeoIP list became outdated, in this case we can look at the issue, if it is on Battletracker, then we cannot change anything.

I just spoke with the clan leader, and he informed me that the server is located in Chicago. And yes I am trying to get NAM back into AA!!

As Possessed asked, we need the IP to test/verify/fix the issue

As an alternative, if the server is online now, what is it named?

Im guessing its -=NAM=-North American Militia (while color) with (Republic of) Singapore flag. Although with the ping, it is definitely American - or at least, not European.

Lookip up IP, it gives both Singapore (here, for instance: https://www.iplocation.net/ (https://www.iplocation.net/)) and USA (here, for instance: http://whatismyipaddress.com/ip/144.48.106.66 (http://whatismyipaddress.com/ip/144.48.106.66))

Probably need to update geoiptables.

Good to hear, Tru. Will be looking forward to it :)

The database that 25Assist uses show SG as the country for 144.48.106.66

I'll try a update and see of the result changes

After the update, the IP now shows as US...
It will take some time until it will be shown everywhere as US, but just be patient, it will update soon...

They are still showing as SG, if you restart them it might resolve it self.
