Maxmind GeoIP Alternative - IP2Location

I have been using IP2Location for awhile and I found their data center ranges is more accurate compare to GeoIP.
I wonder when we can use it in OPNsense.

+1 to be able to switch to IP2Location, as I too have confirmed that Maxmind's "Lite" database is missing some information eg. I block RU and I am seeing mail from there hitting my mail server. Checking the CSV files and the particular subnet is not being mapped to any location.

AFAICT -IP2Location charges for access to their databases, $49 PA. Maxmind is free.

The Lite version from IP2Location is what I was referring to, sorry, but the file is not the same format so I don't think it's a straight swap.
