    Im not sure of that. Iirc some countries (Japan, U.S??) specify differant channels and slightly differant frequency ranges so it would work but you may be using a frequency/channel that is outside that countries regulatory conditions. I didnt take the time to look it up but im sure i read that somewhere, maybe a ccna book??

    edit:
    Limitations

    Spectrum assignments and operational limitations do not operate consistently worldwide. Most of Europe allows for an additional 2 channels beyond those permitted in the U.S. for the 2.4 GHz band. (1–13 vs. 1–11); Japan has one more on top of that (1–14).

    Hallo,

    At Munich Airport people fly in from Japan, China, Singapore, Soth Africa, USA, Brazil and Canada. They use the WiFi Services in the airport and hotels.

    There are restrictions on some of the channels in some countries. But most channels work OK and it's rare to find an AP using those channels anyway
