@yom3iIf you're looking at the geofilter map, it's likely because the server isn't located in your area. Alternatively, the server might be nearby, but the login server is elsewhere, so it uses a server in a different location to authenticate.

But when I look on google maps it shows my live location out the US

You need to understand that this is not Google Maps—this is a geofilter map. To achieve your goal, you should disable geolatency. Doing so will ensure that the map remains within the intended radius. Any servers that are blocked will then appear as expected.

Geolatency is located in the top right corner of the geofilter map, hidden under the three dots menu.

Ohh so basically i need to disable the geo filter then it shows my original location on Google maps but if I want to play a game and find preferred server that has good ping I basically turn the geo filter on and etc that's what I assume you ment to say? Or that's how it's supposed to be used?

@yom3iIt won't precisely show your location, as it connects to a server that might be located near your area or elsewhere. If you want to find an optimal server close to you, it's best to use a geofilter with geolatency disabled. So yes, if you want low ping, you want the nearest server, though sometimes you can still get low ping even if a server is a bit far due to routing, but it’s rare.

The Geo-Filter doesn't impact your location on Google Maps, that's nothing to do with the router at all. If Google Maps is showing your location incorrectly and you've verified you get the same behavior directly connected to your modem then it's down to the IP address from your internet provider and you'd need to contact them if you believe it's causing issues
