C6250 conflicting country codes
I am using a NetGear AC1600 (C6250) cable modem router and a NetGear AC750 (EX3700) wifi range extender in DENMARK.
Also use various devices - AppleMacbook, Huawei Android Phone, Samsung Android Tablet, PlayStation4, Dell windows laptop, and so on....
But with my most important device that i am working on - the MacBook - it fails to deliver countinous signal. I have done several wireless diagnostics and its showed that the country codes are differs on these devices that makes the Mac confused and keeps dropping connection.
My networks called "NETGEAR" and "NEATGEAR_5" on the ModemWifi, and "NETGEAR_EXT", "NETGEAR_EXT5" on the wifi extender.
country code protocol
netgear - 802.11n
netgear_5 DE 802.11ac
netgear_ext FR 802.11b/g/n
netgear_ext5 FR 802.11ac
And when i try to modify the country code on any of those netgear devoces they can be only modified as region not as country, so both set to Europe but its far from being good enough.
Any help please, some solution?!

Hello beni0208
Can you try to set the modem and extender to the same wifi channels and test again to see if they are still using different country codes.

Hey DarrenM,
My wifi is set to channel 44 on 5ghz and to channel 4 on 2.4ghz. The extender's channels are set for automatic and i cannot change on that, no idea why, but the options are inactive for interactions.
Please help :) the same situation is still existent.
Hello beni0208
The extenders channels follow the channels that the main router is set to so you would have to change it on the router.
