What you are talking about is "IP GEOLOCATION", which is about 50-80% accurate. Going to the Cox store with your modem is not going to be a fix. What you will need to do is contact whoever is attempting to use the IP Geolocation and inform them if the issue.
ISP's move IP addresses around as necessary to best serve their customers. If they have more than necessary in one location, they will shift the unused ones to an area where they are needed. This is why IP Geolocation is inaccurate and Video providers as well as other services should never use IP geolocation as a method of determining your location.
