GeoIP lookups happen immediately after netblock lookups, so by
"missing" in the netblock lookup, GeoIP will then kick in.
Given this, I'll go ahead and delete all the netblock entries. If you
want, for your ISP directly, to put back your specific netblocks,
that's fine.
OK?
Thanks,
Matt

Hello Matt,
Sorry for this late reply.
Yes you right, all the netblocks listed is IP from Indonesia (ID).
We want try to serve people from Indonesia as we connected directly to local
internet exchange (Indonesia Internet Exchange).
I'm sorry, we don't know that MM can fallback to use geoip when nothing
match
What do you suggest, should we remove all the netblock because as you said
MM will fallback to GeoIP-based country ?
Thanks,
