Enable Channel 13 for Wireless
« on: November 12, 2016, 07:47:50 pm »
Is there a way to enable channel 13 for the wireless network?

I'm in the EU so channel 13 should be fine.
I've already tried the WiFi patch, but that didn't show me any channel 13 SSID's.

If you could go into a store in Europe and try a YOGA Book (Lenovo YB1-X91F/L), you could copy out the \system32\drivers\4356r2nvram.txt and copy it into your system I think that should fix that problem.

If so upload the file.

EDIT:

I used the Japanese Wifi fix and that sorted out the problem for me.

Great!

I'll compare the 2 files and see what's different between those 2 fixes

Ok, I've found out that the only difference of the txt file ia just the country code.

Open up the 4356r2nvram.txt file, and change:
Code: [Select]
ccode=US
into the desired country code, like for the Netherlands it's:
Code: [Select]
ccode=NLsave it and run the patch again as administrator rights.
Reboot, done!
