USA region problems!

Gemini API
,

I’m encountering a strange issue with the Gemini image generation API.

When I make requests from Roanoke, Virginia, the API fails with the following error:

HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found

However, when I make the exact same request from Washington, Virginia, it works perfectly.

Here are the two locations:

  • Roanoke, Virginia, United States
  • Washington, Virginia, United States

I’m using the gemini-2.0-flash-exp-image-generation model. Everything else in the request is identical — same endpoint, method, payload, and credentials. The only difference is the geographic origin.

This behavior is unexpected and suggests there may be a region-based restriction, IP filtering, or a routing issue affecting availability in some areas.

Could you please investigate this and let me know what’s going on?
