Setting up iPad

When setting up my iPad, I reach the iCloud section then get a message that someone near Arundel is attempting to log into my account. I am in Manchester. Any ideas?

update Apple ID settings I get a message to update my Apple ID settings frequently. Now when I get it, if I enter my ID, it says someone is trying to login from Glendale CA. I’m in southern Arizona. It seems to show the other iPad as ipad(2), but mine is ipad(10)

New iPhone SE. Can't set it up. When I try, the "allow" screen tells me someone in Alabama is trying to log into my phone using my Apple ID. I live and am sitting at my desk in Boise Idaho. What is going on that I get a message someone in Alabama is using my login? I just want this phone to work. The folks at the AT&T store thought they had me ready to go when I got home, but didn't set up the phone in the store. I have no idea what is going on.

Why do I keep getting a message saying that someone is trying to log into my account from San Jose CA when I’m in Texas? while using my phone yesterday I tried to log into my Apple account. It wouldn’t accept my pass word and made me change it so I did. I kept getting a message after that saying that someone was trying to use my phone from San Jose California, but I am in Dickinson Texas And I have my phone with me. I changed the password but I kept getting the same message about my phone being in San Jose California. This happened every time I tried to login so finally I said that it was me. My observation is that since Apple is in California maybe that’s why it was saying that. Has anyone had this issue?

it's likely the location of the main router of your isp, the accept location dialog does not use the location of our devices themselves

Thanks. I managed to contact Apple and that was the answer. Thanks again.
