Aha. http://yahoo.com/ ... Yes, there is an IP address geo-locater at
that
site for your weather and possibly other things as well. It's working for
me, showing a town near where I live in New York State.
As Paul said, clear your cache and yahoo cookies and try again. You could
also try a different browser and see how it does.
Or simply just click the little location icon beside the City name and
enter your correct zipcode. OP ISP may not correctly parse geo-locaters,
when I when insane and desperate for broadband I tried <cough - cough>
Hughesnet and ip geo-locaters put my location at the NOS in Kansas City
Kansas a mere 800 miles off.
Fair point.
BTW anyone tempted by satellite "broadband" before you sign on the
dotted line first find a heavy blunt object and beat yourself about the
brain-pan until the inkling goes away.
Depends on your circumstances.
Years ago, it was the only game in town for me -- it was either
satellite or dialup. I chose satellite and suffered with the
consequences until the regional phone company got in the game and built
out its fiber network.
But I do understand your frustration. The worst was the initial
requirement (later dropped) that I install and use AOHell.
