You aren't using a VPN are you? if so disable it (obviously)

This location is determined automatically. Location isn't always 100% accurate and sometimes depends on your ISP.

Though Poland and Spain aren't exactly that close to each other (this normally only happens to people near the border close to another country)

No no, i'm not using a VPN.

And I don't think it's because of my ISP... It did not happen before.

I'm also very far from Poland, it's weird

Guys, problem solved. It was the ISP.

They assign public IPs depending on where you live. In any case, it may happen that the ISP runs out of IPs to give in your country, so it will rent an IP from another country to give it to you.

To solve that, you just have to turn off the router for about 5 or 6 hours, then turn it on again and you will have an IP from your country (most likely).

I recommend doing this at night.
