XR500 Wireless Region Issue
My friend bought me a XR500 from Japan and I am not being able to change its Wireless Region to my country, anyway I can request for region reset? Thanks

- I don't think it's possible, would suggest contacting the Netgear phone line. Otherwise look up the allowed channels in your country and make sure you manually select those.

- I don't think this is possible as they are region locked to prevent people using different channels in their country that are legally not allowed.
That is the reason I am asking for help to change the wireless region from Japan over Taiwan, not trying to make any illegal use, thanks
