RAX 200 blocked region

[C4mth4]

Hello everybody,

I bought an used RAX200 and when i plug it i discover the region is blocked at "United States", but i want to change to France.

(Sorry for my bad english)

Thanks for your answer

if you purchase NA SKU, the wifi region would be gray-out according to FCC regulation law.

Hello @Altsai,

I don’t know what is « NA SKU » but yes, the WiFi is gray out. Can I change it with telnet or other? I can’t access to telnet on this model in debug mode?

Hi C4mth4, 

If you purchased a North American RAX200, the WiFi region would be grayed-out according to FCC regulation law. Therefore, you will not be able to change the region.

Hello @Christian_R , thanks for answer.

I see other router can acces with telnet for change region, not on the RAX200 ?

OP, Try installing TelnetEnable on your pc, and if you can successfully telnet into the RAX200 then use burnsku command to change the router's region to WW (world wide).

Do people really need to install third party software to enable Telnet on the RAX 200?

You can do this on some other Netgear routers without adding anything.

Just login to:

http://routerlogin.com/debug.htm

then enable Telnet and take it from there.
