"Korea" in Wireless Settings.

I see "Korea" in Orbi -> Advanced -> Wireless Settings. I am from US region, can someone explain why this text exist and there is no option to change it. 

WiFi regulations are different in various countries.  Somehow you purchased a unit intended for sale in Korea.  I suggest returning it to the seller.

FWIW, South Korea allows some wifi channels that are not legal in the US, and their power limits are different.

Try a factory reset and setup from scratch.

Where did you get the system from?

What model# Orbi system do you have?

What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?

I have this issue as well, only noticed on the Webb GUI of the RBR860.   Purchased from netgear.com with the armor subscription and Family parental controls.

ATT Fiber 1GB bgw320-505 Nokia ‘modem’.  I’m in the US.   

I forgot to mention a factory reset did not change the display, and it persisted through the most recent update of firmware to 7.2.8.5

How long has daybreak1019​ had this Orbi? (model number?).

If less than 90 days, this would be a good topic to bring up with Netgear support.

MY old Orbi has nothing "above the line" on the Advanced WiFi Settings page.

The screen capture above clearly shows the Region setting as "United States". No clue what the word "Korea" refers to.

What does it show in the advanced status page under the advanced home? Not under wireless settings?  (it'll be the box thats wireless settings) 

I have just noticed I also have "Korea" showing as well in the same place under "Advanced Wireless Settings", my RBKE963B was bought for netgear in the UK, however in the Wireless Settings (General) the region shows as "Europe + United Kingdom".

I am running firmware "7.2.7.15".

Wonder if its just a display issue since one status page shows correct. Nice thing is, Korea/UK both have similar 5ghz restrictions.
