Hi all,
I live in Netherlands and bough RT-AC86U there. However, the country code it advertises is DE (Germany).
Probably, as both are in EU I assume it should not matter.
The issue is, I'm unable to select channels 120/124/128:
It means I can't use one 80 Mhz band, as only 116 is available.
According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WLAN_channels#5_GHz_(802.11a/h/j/n/ac/ax) channels 120-128 are allowed for Europe.
I also checked logs to see if those channels were disabled due to DFS/Radar, could not find anything relevant:
I had a different router which had country NL and it was able to select channels 120-128.
So not sure why Asus can't. Any hints?..
