2. Now visit several of the IP address locator sites below, and
enter that IP address into the search box to find which
country the site believes your IP address belongs to.

2.1 https://www.ip2location.com/free.asp
2.2 https://whatismyipaddress.com/ip-lookup
2.3 https://www.ipligence.com/geolocation
2.4 http://www.ipaddresslocation.org/
2.5 https://www.maxmind.com/en/home
2.6 http://www.ip-adress.com/ip_tracer/

Five of these six sites correctly identified that I am in
New Zealand. But one site thought I was in South Korea.

Four are in the correct county, one of them being only about 10 - 15 miles
from the centre of England; two are Warrington in the NW of England and one
is in The Hague!

The Hague!? You stole MY IP!

BTW, is the wrong one (The Hague) given by this one:

2.3 https://www.ipligence.com/geolocation

That one places me in Rome, which is not too bad! :-)

Yes, that's the one.
