Change region of Xiaomi routers to unlock all channel:
1. Login to ur router in browser.
2. Open a new tab and paste this
http://192.168.31.1/cgi-bin/luci/;stok=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/api/xqsystem/set_country_code?country=CN
get the stok value from login tab and replace it in new tab and then hit enter.
3. Router will reboot automatically and on next login u will see all 5Ghz channel 36~48 and 149~165.
**u can also go with country=HK or country=TW (hongkong or taiwan)

Anyone with unlocked firmware? AX3000 Global. 5GHz is giving me headaches or anyone know how to downgrade?

I regret buying this router, mostly because it has very limited number of channels, my last 2 routers were from TP-Link and they had all the channels but on AX3000 Global I see 36, 40, 44, 48 channels, but my iPhone, Xiaomi 13 Ultra, S23 Ultra or even Honor Magic 5 Pro can't connect to those channels. only phone that connects to that channel is Pixel phones (7 Pro and 8 Pro) but Pixel 4 XL also can't find that.

Hello, were you able to find a solution for this? There are ways to change the region but in no case does it unlock the rest of the channels

Not really, turned out new routers can't change channels based on region settings.

I bought a different router now from Netgear Nighthawk AXE300 now I have almost each and every band and I don't have to switch regions (actually I can't as region is set to US)
