After a recent reboot, my ADSL router has been allocated an IP address in the range 47.72.200.0 and now Google (at least) thinks I'm in Indonesia. Is there a way via my EchoLife HG556a that I can release the lease and get a good old-fashioned 202-ish address?

Why does it matter? It shouldn't impact your performance in any way. It's just Google's IP geo data is wrong.

As mentioned, just be Googles geolocation database needs an update.
