Default Identify culture(of the client) from web request a

Hi ,
I want to identify the physical location of a client requesting a page from my web application.
I have tried Request.ServerVariable["HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE"].. this works but not a good idea, as the client might have not chaned his regional settings...

Other way ...
IP to region mapping

if any one can suggest a better way ? nothing like it...

Identifying the location of a cliente it's been a problem since ever... The problem is that users can install browsers from different locations and change regional settings whenever they want.
So, I think, the best way it's to provide a page that permits users to choose the location before getting in the application.
