Contact me offline if you want a list of (more minor) GeoIP sites I have
bookmarked.

Thanks for that Frank.

I've had contacts from Akamai and a couple of others off-list now. I've also checked MaxMind - their database appears to be up to date as well.

I can't check Google at this second, as I'm based in the UK - I'll be setting something up for such tests tonight or tomorrow, but I seem to remember that we've previously spoken to them about it.

Thanks,

Chris

Subject: Issues accessing hulu.com from new(ish) US range

Would someone from hulu.com please contact me offlist?

Alternatively, if anyone has contact details for a vaguely clueful person there, that would be appreciated.

We had a new range allocated to us by ARIN around 6 months ago for our US business, and hulu are claiming it's non-us. Our guess is that it's a canned response by first-line support.

Also, does anyone happen to know which geolocation databases hulu use?


Thanks,
Chris
