My iPod Touch would once find my (at home) location on Google Maps. Now it will not. I have switched wireless routers and internet providers which may have something to do with the issue, but when I turn on the old Linksys router (which is NOT connected to the  internet) my iPod WILL find my location.

What gives? I understand the iPod does not have a GPS but uses ISP info to locate its position...but can the older router have its location “stored” in some way?
