Hi MuWire uses the GeoIP database to determine the country, so that database must be having an incorrect value for that IP range. Is this with MuWire 0.8.10? Which format - AppImage or Windows installer or .zip?

It is 0.8.10 windows installer

Ok with the windows installer you should be able to update the file manually. It is located in

C:\Program Files (x86)\MuWire\geoip\GeoLite2-Country.mmdb

One option is to wait until I release next MuWire version which should be in January. Or if you want you can register at https://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/geolite2-free-geolocation-data?lang=en and download the latest mmdb file.

Or if you just delete that file (make a backup first) MuWire should no longer try to guess which country it's running in.
