Yeah I've heard about the regional wifi laws to do with strengths etc. Annoyingly there is a disabled region dropdown in the web UI of the router, which has Europe listed as an option, I just cant change it. Ive tried undisabling in the inspector as well as crafting an http request to modify the region but it doesn't work. Then it reboots itself due to the lack of cable connection.

I understand more with the gas due to the difference in gas canister supplies. They do actually sell replacement regional hoses, so I assumed I'd be able to just switch it out.

Usually it's trivial to change the wifi region, so it sounds like Netgear are just being arseholes there.

I thought you were talking about mains gas for the oven - they tend to get a lot more precious over that being correctly fitted than for canisters.
