Change the country or region of operation

You can change the country or region in which the access point operates. Note the
following:
• Make sure that the country is set to the location where the device is operating. You
are responsible for complying with the local, regional, and national regulations that
are set for channels, power levels, and frequency ranges.
• It might not be legal to operate the access point in a country or region other than
those listed in the menu. If your country or region is not listed in the menu, you must
check with your local government agency or check the NETGEAR website for
information about which channels you can use.
• In some countries, the access point is sold with a preconfigured country or region
setting and you cannot change it.

the access point or directly to the access point through an Ethernet cable or WiFi
