So I open my Ipad and it says I am in Canada, I have never been to Canada. the time is also set to Canada time zone (Toronto)
Why did my Ipad chance the location and time zone?
Have i been hacked?
Is it my new router that says I am in Canada?
Do you have a WiFi Only model of iPad, or WiFi+Cellular?
Only WiFi+Cellular models of iPad have GPS - this being a function of the iPad Cellular chipset. WiFi Only models of iPad have no GPS capabilities with which iPad Location Services can derive location. This fundamental difference may significantly impact your ability to accurately determine location - or use mapping Apps if real-time positioning (e.g., a moving map) is required.
WiFi Only models can only “infer” their location from a database lookup of neighbouring WiFi networks for which the geographic location is known, or the geographic location of your public IP address. For static applications in urban locations, where the location of IP public IP addresses and WiFi networks are known, an “inferred” location can be relatively accurate. However, in rural locations, or when using a Cellular/Satellite/VPN connection, location accuracy of an inferred location [if it works at all] may be very inaccurate.
if it's the wifi only ipad then it does not have gps so it only knows where it is if the router it's connected to knows where that is and if it does not then the router it in kind are connected to knows it's location and so forth
Ipad has the wrong location
