Title: Geoblocking, IP not blocked
Post by: gctwnl on May 11, 2026, 10:28:50 AM
(Not upgraded yet, will soon)

I have some geoblocking in my firewall (mainly to prevent direct attacks/spam from a few countries). One of these countries is China, a rather large source of this. But I just noticed that 101.47.29.67 was not blocked, while it is clearly Chinese. That made me wonder: are there tables I have to update or anything else I should do?

First step: log in to the Maxmind or IPinfo portal where you registered to set up your (assumed) free account, then check with their tools, where they locate that address.
