Incorrect Public IP Geolocation (Shows Ashburn VA Instead of Morgantown WV)

Hello,
I’m having an issue where my Comcast-assigned public IP address is geolocating incorrectly.

My physical service address is Morgantown, West Virginia, but my public IP frequently resolves to:

  • Ashburn, VA

  • New York, NY

  • Newark, NJ

This causes websites, maps, weather services, and search engines to show the wrong region.

I have already tried the following:

  • Renewing DHCP lease

  • Rebooting modem

  • Using my own approved Netgear/Nighthawk modem

  • Clearing browser/cache

  • Testing multiple devices on the network

All devices on my network experience the same incorrect IP geolocation behavior.

Could you please submit an IP Geolocation Correction Request for my current public IP to:

  • MaxMind

  • Neustar IP Intelligence

  • IP2Location

The correct geographic location for this IP should be:
Morgantown, WV (26505)

Please let me know if you need any additional information, such as the IP address or traceroute. I would really appreciate your help getting this corrected.

Thank you.
