IPv6 & country flag issue

Postby MobiusBE » 28 Jan 2018, 18:27

Hello everyone

I noticed the country flag issue showing '?' instead of a country is related to enabling or disabling IPv6 for me. I already dropped this suspicion in another thread, but wanted to make a topic about this particular thing anyway.

I tested it by enabling and disabling IPv6 a few times. Everytime I log in with IPv4, it correctly shows my country flag. When I log in with IPv6 enabled, it shows a '?' flag instead.
I heard incorrect geoip data was the cause of this, but maybe this info can help in any way?

Attached latest log for exploring.

Kind regards
Mobius
