Hello Basavaraj,
I have two questions:
Is the US region code being canceled?
Does NA mean North America, the same wireless standard as the US? thanks

Hi shejialun ,
I don't think US region is cancelled.
two things:
1. NA mean North America, the same wireless standard as the US.
2. What i feel is if you configure North America, NA region has drop down list of US as well. I'm not 100% sure about it.
Thanks,
Basavaraj

I have tested the configuration to NA but the region selection becomes grayed out and unselectable, which is the same as when my product arrived with the wireless region being USA.- schumakuAug 02, 2023Guru - Experienced User

What do you expect after all this experiments?
- shejialunAug 02, 2023AspirantAs I said before, I'm trying to change back to the US region now, but I can't find the US region, so I have to change back to the NA region!
So I would like to confirm that this device has a US region option?
Is the NA region equal to the US region for wireless power and signal?
I actually have another older unit model R7000 which has always been able to select the US region, but my newer SXK80 can't find the US region anymore, which makes me I'm confused!
