Describe the bug
When running ghunt geolocate (bssid here) it always returns the following error: "Location not found.".
I have tried with several other bssids of networks in my area and they all return the same error.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Retrieve bssid from nearby and my own WiFi networks
  2. Run Ghunt geolocate (bssid here)
  3. Expect it to return a location or something
  4. Does not work

Expected behavior
It should return the location of the bssid.

System (please complete the following information):

  • Windows 10 x64 Pro [Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.19045.4780]]
  • Python 3.12.1 (tags/v3.12.1:2305ca5, Dec 7 2023, 22:03:25) [MSC v.1937 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32

Additional context
I have tried it with multiple BSSID's including my own and seen the same results.
Either this function has been patched from Google's API, or I am inputting the data wrong.
Since nobody else has complained about this yet, I may be the first.
