From MoodleDocs

Some IP address ranges are only for use in private networks that cannot be accessed from the global internet. Typically these will be used by groups of machines "hidden" behind a firewall. Three ranges are defined by the agreed standard RFC1918. These are as follows:

  • 10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255
  • 172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255
  • 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255

As these addresses will be used many times over throughout the world, there is no way to detect where in the world the user is located.
