Paramount plus changed my local news station

Help.  I've been watching Paramount Plus for years and getting Colorado Springs live news from KKTV.

Now today it switched on me to Denver KCNC which I hate!!

I click on the KKTV link and it just reverts back to Denver.  How do I get it to change back?

Re: Paramount plus changed my local news station

I don't know for sure how Paramount+ assigns your local station, but there's a good chance it goes by the location of the IP number your ISP assigns to your account.

If your internet provider assigns or changes your IP number to one attached to one of its servers located in a different area, that could change the local stations you are provided.

You can use an IP info website like the ones listed below to see where the IP number assigned by your internet provider indicates you are located. If this doesn't represent your actual area, you can contact your internet provider and ask to be reassigned an IP in your area.

Some IP info websites:
https://www.iplocation.net/
https://www.iplocation.com/
https://tools.keycdn.com/geo
https://www.ipfingerprints.com/
A web search for "IP Location" can find many more.
