WLAN Country Setting

Due to regulations, the country-specific setting has been removed from the setup menu and Web-Manager. However, we provide a separate utility for changing the Country/Zone setting. The utility is called SetZone and is included in the package. It is also available for download from the Lantronix web site.

The syntax is: SetZone <IP address> [<zone abbreviation>]

Leaving the zone blank causes the utility to report the current setting only. Following are valid zone abbreviations. These settings are consistent with IEEE802.11b/g zones:

US=United States

CA=Canada

FR=France

SP=Spain

JP=Japan

OT=Others, such as Europe (excluding France), Asia, Africa, and Australia
