hi,

an app killed my ability to connect my phone to my mac (at least that is what i'm thinking at the moment).
so i was looking on nokias site for a binary and found several images (UK, USA, "Middle East and North Africa" and a global) now i'm start to wonder what this is all about?!

i could think of the different WiFi settings. in there are 13 channels allowed in europa, but only 11 in the USA (which is also known as "world" setting). so using the global binary could be a stupid idea, but that is only a guess....

any ideas?

I've got a uk n900 and it doesn't support channels 12 or 13

hmm ok no UK-Binary for me then :-) thanks for the info.

but i wonder why, both channels are legal in UK (so as everywhere in the european union).

How do you tell? I can't see anything reported (other than via osso-product-info which just reports "etsi/eu" which doesn't help) on WLAN channels. WifiEye is certainly picking up APs on channel 12 here (and possibly 13, but there's nothing around here on that channel).

if it mention ETSI, then it should be able to use 13 channels.

fm radio channels? USA uses "odd" frequencies 97.1 97.3 etc
UK allows 97.2

from what i can see from the size of each file, all the localised binaries are bigger then the global version. so there must be a difference in the programs. everything else could be something related to the config files.

@cjard
could also be the lowest and highest frequency of the transmitter in addition to what you mentioned.
