Change region
Hi. I bought an Orbi RBK53 from the US. It seems to work well but the region the Router and satellittes is set as "North America" and cannot be changed. Does this affect the performance of the RBK5...
SOLVED!
I managed to resolve this thanks to FURRYe38 and ekhalil
1) Enable telnet on router and satellite by enabling telnet on web management
e.g. 192.168.1.x/debug.htm
2. login
3.
REGION read:
root@RBR50:/# artmtd -r region
The region number is: 0x0001
REGION: NA (North America for me)
4.
REGION write:
root@RBR50:/# artmtd -w region "region name"
For instance : artmtd -w region WW (worldwide)
5.
At this point the Region Selection in the Advanced Wireless Settings will not be greyed out any longer and you're able to chose any region, in my case Europe!
