Select the Country Code
The Country Code Selector is a tool provided to allow users to switch to different country codes. The Wireless LAN Card has EEPROM locations allocated to store country code information.
The selections available include the United States, Canada, Europe, Japan and so on.
When the country code is changed, the NDIS driver scans only the legal frequency channels allowed in those countries.
In most cases your Wireless LAN Card is shipped with proper country setting. If you need to change the country code:
1. Open the Country Code Selector tool by selecting the Country Select button on the Tools tab or selecting Action menu and clicking Country Select.
2. From the Country drop-down menu, choose the country to switch to.
