Hi porschaman,
The region is locked based on the place it was manufactured and also the firmware loaded on it. If you want to change it, you may try loading a different firmware. Check the suppot site (Support.netgear.com).

Sorry for posting so many replies, but i have found new information.
Using the burnsku command,
0x001 is for region NA
0x002 is for region WW
0x003 is for region GR
0x004 is for region PR
0x005 is for region RU
0x006 is for region BZ
0x007 is for region IN
0x008 is for region KO
0x009 is for region JP
This are all the available commands i have found which links to a region. FYI, the numbers 0x001, 0x002 is the command you type in the telnet to change the region (burnsku 0x001 etc.)
