Yesterday evening my S6 Lite 2022 started thinking it's in Hartlepool - this is about 160 miles from where I actually live. I've rebooted the tablet twice but it's not changing the location.
This morning it still shows the wrong location in all apps that need a location. In fact on Google Maps I'm shown in a very specific (but completely wrong) address. My wife also has an S6 Lite, connected to the same WiFi network, and it reports the location correctly, as do our phones.
How can I fix this and why has it gone wrong?
