Location wrong on Moto G 8

[Android Central Question]

The GPS on my phone puts me in Indonesia not the UK.
How do I change this ?
The wi-fi router puts my pc at the correct position so it looks like a phone issue.
Thanks.

Hi

No. This happens in my home using a router. The same router shows my pc as being in the correct location.
I don't currently have a sim card in my mobile so can only use the internet in my home.
Hope this helps.

If you're referring to the likes of NordVPN and Surfshark then no.

Welcome to Android Central! Where did you get your G8 from? Was it intended for the Indonesian market?

I bought it in the UK - from Amazon I think.
