The issue with using Maxmind is that they generate a database I think every two weeks and then the user has to download those to their server and use it e.g. in this case for sorting the proxylist appropriately. Maybe the downloaded copy is out of date, I can ask about it. How long ago did you update that location info?
Umm, a few years ago now.
Restarting the proxy does not change that, it is determined by the server at Echolink.
The restart was in case it actually wasn't working. :)
That should be different for the relay service, I think the geolocation of that is done by AWS using some standard "geo-aware DNS service" that echolink uses. Thus the updating of the location database is done by AWS.
Well, Echolink on my phone doesn't seem to want to use my proxies, even though they should be the closest (both geographically and topologically).
