Hi,
I sometimes use my mobile ip for internet on my laptop instead of my current broadband, and its a static ip and when i look up my ip on google it says the connection is coming from a totally different part of the country and sometimes it changes to different parts of the country on different days.

Does mobile ip never associated with my current location then? Like my broadband for example?
 
yea, i experience this too
one of my connections is 3G with dynamic IP and it shows our capital as my location, no matter that i'm 150 km from it most of the time :)
it's the same with 3 different mobile providers i used/use
 
If you bought the mobile out of the country then it would still have the IP designated of the country, but if you know have a static IP that is in country then that would not affect when using the mobile hotspot on computer

First and foremost, it's a thread from 5 years ago, which was bumped by a spammer. Second, what OP's talking about has nothing to do with the location, where he bought the phone. If you use a phone abroad and connect to the internet, you'll get an ip address allocated via an ISP in that foreign country and not by your own ISP at home, look up how data roaming works.

Locations may differ, because these sites - which show you your location when do an ip address query - work with different ip address databases, which are different either because they are different lol or because they use updated/non-updated versions of the same database. On top of this ips are getting re-allocated.

Thank you for the clarification and I'll try to pay more attention to dates of post when searching/commenting on things
