What's your Airport Card Country code?
I live in Brazil, and bought my 17" MBP from Canada in June, and my airport Country Code right now is ZW (Zimbabwe). When i'm at college, it jumps to US. And at home, it changes to ZW. This is a problem as in some countries some frequencies are now allowed. I have the 10.6.1 SL.
It's seems that either I have a faulty Airport Card, or Snow Leopard changes the card locale depending which routers are available for connection.
So, I wanted to know if anyone is seeing somethig weird as I am in the Airport Country Code.
Here's what I see in my info. The problem is that I can't use Wireless N in this country code.
