Apr 21, 2015 8:01 AM in response to Mannygomby lllaass,Do you have it turned on in Settings>Privacy?
Location
If you open the Maps app where does that say you are located?
For location the iPod uses the location of nearby routers that are in Apple's database of routers and their location. Thus it appears that Apple's database is incorrect. You do not have to be connected to the router, just within range.
Apple periodically updates their database based on information they obtain from iPhones, The iPhone has to have turned on the option to send info to Apple. No one has found another way to get the location of a router added/corrected.
You can confirm that by going to well-know place with wifi like Starbucks or McDonalds

Apr 21, 2015 8:25 AM in response to Mannygomby lllaass,Sounds like networks within range are not in Apple's database.
What if you go to other networks like Starbuck's?
