When I synced my phone with Firefox Windows desktop and iMac, the IP address stated was different to each of the IP addresses assigned to each of those devices and the location was different (estimated) even thought the name of the devices was correct. Should I be concerned by this? I have attached the email from Firefox re new account sign-in re new device pairing, which shows the incorrect IP address and incorrect (estimated) location. Thank you.

What do you see under connected devices on the Firefox Account Settings page ?
