To change the region on an Orbi AX8 (RAX80) router, you can follow these steps:
Open a web browser and enter "http://orbilogin.com" in the address bar to access the router's web interface.
Enter your admin username and password to log in. If you haven't changed the default login credentials, the username is "admin" and the password is "password".
In the router's web interface, navigate to the "Advanced" tab and select "Administration" from the left-hand menu.
Select "Regional" in the sub-menu.
Select the Region you want to choose from the drop-down menu.
Save the changes and restart the router for the changes to take effect.

Thank you for the reply.
However, this does not work.
The region is greyed out, I cannot change the option.
BTW this is a Netgear Nighthawk AX8 (RAX80) router not the Orbi.
