Q: iPhone 4s location wrong... Why?

I think is from the acces point of the wii fii because when i am on 3g its work good

I try 2wii fii routers in my home its show me in france brusseles and in a club in rusia saint petersburg

Tonight my broadband was down so though good time to try sort my postion problem,so, I disabled my location services for 5 minutes and then re enabled - position was spot on at home I then turned of my phone for a couple of minutes and back on again and hey I am still at home

My broadband is now back up and I am still showning my postion as home, just thought I better reboot my phone before posting this and,  gave it a minute as said "cannot determine location"  , and .......... yipee still at home

Will see if it is still working correctly in the morning.

Same problem here, have owned 4s for a couple or so weeks, this morning my gps location defaulted to Lubiana, Slovenia - I live half way round the world in Auckland, New Zealand. Turning phone off and back on doesn't fix the problem. What's causing this problem?  It's been over a month since the original post in this thread, pretty bloody annoying issue if people have been putting up with it for that long!

I have tested location with WiFi off. The problem is still there. Now I see, that I also have problems on/off with local weather. The location in Russia (I am in Hamburg) is giving the local weather. The problem might have occured after registering icloud yesterday.

Well it now seems to be finding my location on maps a little better but very slow and always starts about 30 miles off. But yesterday went to switch on my iPhone after charging and it wouldn't verify sim pin code just hung there so I did a reset and all was fine until 4am this morning when my 7am alarm went off!!! when I checked the time and date settings which are set to automatic it thought I was in Singapore! Rather than Ireland! When I put it to manual it selected Dublin Ireland but turning to automatic and back to Singapore! This morning I reset it to automatic andhey presto Ireland pops up.. But now I can't rely on it :(

we have to take back the device or whait for the ios 5.1 maybe will fix the problem?

Just found I have the same problem. I have an 3gs which all of sudden while sitting at my desk in the north of England tells me I'm in Shanghai!! I wish!!

maybe the map is wrong..

Still showing an accurate position today after yesterdays changes, fingers crossed thats it sorted!

the map its wrong but the wheter,and when i chek in on facebook its the same

My iphone 4s was fine until this morning. Im in cambridge but it was telling me I was in Shanghai, now im in Algeria. Its changed all my location services and the time. Why has this just suddenly happened over night?

had you been to shanghai recently? maybe the system marked your iphone information when you were in China, then it had not been corrected it on time,so.... it shows you are in China....right?

no i was home in Romania i never was were the iphone show me!and he show that i,m in russia and now after i restart a cuple of times it show that i am in france

Me and my mate sit next to each other in work in the UK both with 4s's and are both located next to the same lake in Poland according to maps so it cant be a completely random fault
