VPN Keeps auto-selecting Africa

Hey y’all, I built my first pc and it’s from used parts. For some reason, every time I connect to vpn, my provider thinks I’m in south Africa and I have to manually tell it to choose servers in Dallas (closest) every single session.

The time zone and country in the OS are accurate, is there a bios setting i need to change?
Thank you in advance!!!

There are a number of reasons this could be happening.

  • Operating system language pack? If you’re South African it could be picking up on the language your system is using.

  • It could be the VPN is load balancing and selecting a node with lower usage (you didn’t state which VPN provider).

  • Have you accidentality selected SA as the default option, or remember my settings, again depending on the VPN provider you are using.

  • Some BIOS’s have language settings, however, you haven’t provided any information regarding your configuration or motherboard.
