hi guys, I got good some good thing to share with you all guys for who bought Asus router from China.
I was found a method to switch this
China router to
Asia Pacific version.
I was noticed that this router only got 2 languages only. Either English or Simplfied Chinese. So I guess I need to do something tricks to change the region of this router firmware to Asia version.
**Unfortunately, the region will restore back to China region after reboot. So you need to redo this method again.First of all, you need to login into your router and switch on telnet. Go to administration > system, then switch telnet to "Yes"
[attachmentid=10078627]
Then download and install Putty here

Now login your router with your router username and admin password [your router password]. You will see the screen as below:
[attachmentid=10078641]
Now type this,
nvram set territory_code=AP/01 nvram=commit[attachmentid=10078642]
Now login your router through browser and check for the change
Some of the proof:
as you know, China was blocked Google play.
[attachmentid=10078648]
before that, only got English and Chinese Simplified

The wifi region is no longer showing China as default region.

What's the main benefits to switch the region version?? I mean it's not the same with Txpower in wifi region, right? I thought asus can switch wifi region without switching the whole router into different region...
Or you have to do this to get access to google play?? It's just seem like trouble to just get more than 2 languages for the UI...
