This is out of my range as I use the API provided by https://freegeoip.net/

It seems that there is a bug in your code.
When I go to https://freegeoip.net/xml/<IP> i get a valid response including a (the correct) country code.
In QR it doesn't work.
I would suggest using another API like http://ip-api.com which also supports the ISP.

Keep up the good work.

You say, you get a valid response from freegeoip.net. Can you send me it (& anonymize ip)? Important is only the country code.

Here it is, I found it in my history.
I'm not sure this is going to help though.

There is definitely a bug somewhere, because the last day I had a client with the same IP once from Sweden, and a few hours later he was from the US.
