You mean on a wireless access point you've set up?
If it's still the same as openelec (probably?) it's not possible to change the channel. -

Codeecho "options cfg80211 ieee80211_regdom=DE" > /etc/modprobe.d/cfg80211.conf reboot
that forces the regulatory domain when things are not auto-detected correctly -
it works now

Code
echo "options cfg80211 ieee80211_regdom=DE" > /etc/modprobe.d/cfg80211.conf reboot that forces the regulatory domain when things are not auto-detected correctlyHi, I experienced when preselecting a channel on the router, that the wifis ssid did not show up on raspi3.
Dies the echo command above clear this situation independant of the channel preselected? -

You probably want to set "ieee80211_regdom=US"

Wouldn't setting the region in Kodi do the same thing?
There is no channel 12 or 13 in the US. -

No it would not. Setting the region in Kodi has nothing to do with wireless region in the OS layer.
-
How does the wireless adapter know what country it is in? Will a UK adapter even work in the US?
I don't remember LibreELEC asking my region when I installed it.

In some devices the region coding is embedded in device firmware so selection is handled automatically by the kernel. In other devices the default is a world region code. This is in theory what RPi3 has, only the wireless driver has some caveats on auto-detection and only sees channels 1-11 unless you force the region code (which has nothing to do with Kodi). We don't ask for the region code because a) we have no way of asking it currently, b) no other driver needs this, c) out of tens of thousands of installed systems only about 10 people have complained.

I see.
Thank you
