2 of the geolocation datapoints are showing that my IP address is in  San Antonio, TX while the third is showing Lewisville, TX.   


My current location is in Lewisville, TX and need to have all ip addresses to reflect that so that information.    


my IP address is 72.191.193.222

The IP based geolocation map is not always precise. A pool of IPs from each ISPs are shared amongst users from multiple cities, and the IPs are randomly assigned to users on an availability basis. Different IP-to-location data providers do their best to provide accurate information, but the nature of the mapping causes the data to be less accurate.

One location is saying I am in Naperville, Illinois and the other three are saying I am in Albuquerque NM.  I am in Albuquerque NM but MLB.TV is blacking out baseball games in the Chicago market because it thinks I am in Naperville, Illinois. What do I need to do to get the address correct?
