Description Neo Futur 2013-05-20 23:43:00 CEST

Description of problem:
 another issue related to upgrading behind a proxy, the geolocalization for mirrors will use my local address ( 192.168.0.x )  , thus finding no mirrors , not my internet address
 "Via" or "X-Forwarded-For" headers IIRC should be checked
 whatsmyip.org can find the internet ip , the mirror thing find the local ip
 http://www.satya-weblog.com/2009/10/getting-visitor-ip-address-real-php.html
 gives the header trick for proxy ip
