you can move the home by clicking the home button and then clicking around where you are.

 

Also should probably PM Iain with the following:

Your Public IP: can get from going to http://whatismyipaddress.com/

Your Location: At minimum City, State, ZIP

 

Thanks! and sorry for your trouble

I'm sorry I had not the opportunity to respond.    Back when I had issue I was able to change 'home' back to my location.  today the home location has changed to Australia and despite me selecting home in texas it reverses itself back to australia

Make sure you are running the latest firmware 1.02.6 netduma.com/upgrade

I actually also have this issue only in a different state.  I live in on the northeastern border of missouri and for whatever reason the netduma will sometimes think I am in the middle of kansas.  It's not a big deal because I just reset my home location, however I'd like to be as precise as possible.

I definitely agree, I believe Iain is implementing the geo-location built into HTML5 for a future release so it can get much much closer to where you live...

 

this is the feature where a website asks if it can use your location and then locates you.

Yea I saw you mention that previously, it's a good idea

Don't worry guys it won't make a difference to your gaming. Please just make sure you put your home where you are. 

 

I've started this thread, if you're home is mislocated AND its not in Australia please post here: http://forum.netduma.com/topic/379-wrong-home-location/

 

The Australia location is because it can't guess your home. So it just guesses the IP address 1.2.3.4 which is google Aus :)

Is there any way you can put the Great Lakes on the map? haha. I live in northern Indiana and it's difficult to tell where I'm actually putting the locator pin. Every time I open up the router page it moves my pin West of my actual position (I think).

@ codester i hear ya.I live in SW lower Michigan and i have trouble finding the Great Lakes too.And i live really close to Lake Michigan but i do notice it tends to put me more in the South East (Kentucky and below) but if Iain says there's a fix on the way there is.
