Comments on Installing mod_geoip for Apache2 On Ubuntu 9.10

Installing mod_geoip for Apache2 On Ubuntu 9.10 This guide explains how to set up mod_geoip with Apache2 on an Ubuntu 9.10 system. mod_geoip looks up the IP address of the client end user. This allows you to redirect or block users based on their country. You can also use this technology for your OpenX (formerly known as OpenAds or phpAdsNew) ad server to allow geo targeting.

mod_geoip not working with suphp

By: Guillermo Mansilla

When you say

 "Call that file in a browser, and it should display your country (make sure that you're calling the file from a public IP address, not a local one)."

 Does it mean I wont be able to get Location from visitors using a wireless router with ip address like 192.168.x.x ???

 It is rare because When I visit the tutorial http://www.netdip.com/installing-the-maxmind-geolite-city-binary-database-and-the-mod-geoip-module-for-apache2-on-ubuntu-linux-2s/ 

 it shows my location, but when I follow that tutorial and try to visit my own server (I am behind a wireless router) I get no data.
