WNDA3100v2 Region Change
Ever since I bought this N600 WiFi Dual Band USB Adapter I had trouple with the connection
to my home network. One day it works fine, another day it doesn´t work at all. I have the newest
version of the Netgear genie 2.2.0.5. Today I found another clue why it may not work.
I moved over here from Germany and have a german version of Windows on my PC.
The Adapter I bought here in the USA where I´m living now. In the software under
Other-Region it says Europe. Does anybody know if this could be the cause of my
Problems and how to change the Region to USA?? I´m downloading the software
by selecting US, the Adapter is bought in the US, but for some reason it only recognices
Region: Europe. I´m guessing it´s because of my german Windows. Any solution I
would highly appreciate.

Hallo JamesGL,
here is the link for the download:

I found a solution for my problem. I bought a TP-Link WiFi Range Extender TL-WA850RE, and with this one
the connection works fine. So, my logical explanation would be: The cause of the problem is the Arris-TG862-Router
from Brighthouse. But every other wireless device works great with the router, even from the same location. So,
I don´t know. At least I have a functioning system now.
