The standard way to get the location is via a reverse DNS Lookup and this work on how your ISP reports the location (usually the location of the gateway), on a mobile device GPS can be used to get a precise location.

You can use websites like these to check how your location is reported via a reverse DNS lookup of your IP:

• https://www.iplocation.net/
• https://whatismyipaddress.com/

Open Google Maps on your phone while connected to WiFi with location enabled and it will associate your IP address with that location.

Thanks for the suggestions. None helped. I guess I should have been more specific. This is my desktop computer with Win 10 and FF 115.3.1 ESR portable.

I changed 5 settings to solve the problem:

1) Set my default location in Windows 10. Settings: Privacy: Location: 'Set default' opens Windows Map. Entered my longitude and latitude 2) Turned off Web & App Activity and Location History. Set my home address.

Otherwise Google ignores all other settings and uses the IP address. :(

So far it tells me that I'm in Grande Prairie, Alberta. Searches find local stores, NOT those in Edmonton
