Regulartory domains

[owen2]

Hi,

AP with the regulatory domain of E can it be used outside of another country like America?
i been puzzled of the 5Ghz SSID is not broadcast and not visible.

I only can see 2.4Ghz SSID , even though the radio policy is set to ALL.

You should only use the correct regulatory domain in the country it was manufactured for.  In America, the AP's should be a -B.  Older access points are a -A.

@Scott Fella will it affect the 5Ghz broadcasting?
or only 2.4Ghz is usable.

this is what I wanted to confirm.

It will affect both, but keep in mind that you can get in trouble.  Why not get the right ap for the country the ap will be located?.
