Didn't know where to ask this as it is not an Umbraco issue, but hope someone can add something to it.
Have implemented directions into the Google Maps datatype after a lot of fiddling, but now works well on local server.
However, if I call it via desktop site, its pinpoints my exact location, like exactly within metres.
If I call it from the mobile version, it places me 519km away, in the district of Coimbra, which I have no doubt is very pretty, but it is not where I am.
Have stripped out everything, just make the google call in the view, not in a layout, so effectively both versions make the same calls, so why the difference?
I am using a router to which Google analytics would tell me was in the same district that I am in, so would accept it if this was the case.
Can anyone think of a reason why it might be happening? Want to put it live asap, but would like som reassurance first, if possible.
Geo-Location acting strange
