Conflict with nearby networks

Wifi drops continuously. The following wireles diagnostice doesn't help me.

The following nearby networks conflict with my current country code (us): DIRECT-roku_448 (b0:a7:37:03:02:35) - Q2


A nearby wireless router has been detected which is identifying itself as originating from a country which conflicts with my current settings. It prevents my Mac from rejoining a previously joined wi fi network.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15

MacBook Pro since about 2012 have three antennas, located internally. But it the antennas were disconnected, your Wi-Fi would work, but give you poor reception and very slow speeds.


"Not showing as an Option" is a different problem.
