Usually that is because the ISP did not update its records

Not necessarily, the record could be valid, or current just as well. Try to trace any AOL IP address. They all end in the same location, Dulles, VA., regardless of where you are in the US, it always ends at that location. One can not trust that the geographic location of the user's IP is indeed their geographic location (unless every single AOL user really does live in Dulles, VA.) A lot of large ISP's (like Comcast, like AOL, like many others) have central NOCs where their IP pools are located.

I don't know if you are aware of how NetGeo works but often it checks other things besides DNS records and usually these are those that are outdated or never setup correctly by the owners of the networks. So, NetGeo results are usually better than nothing. -- Regards, Manuel Lemos Free ready to use OOP components written in PHP http://www.phpclasses.org/
