Default Set the correct country code for Actiontec 1000H?

We are located in Canada, but the V1000H broadcasts the country code "US" rather than "CA" like the other WiFi access points in our network and in our neighbours' networks. This causes various conflicts for various of our devices, including most of our Apple products, as detailed http://www.howtogeek.com/211993/how-...ur-macs-wi-fi/ and https://discussions.apple.com/thread...art=0&tstart=0 for example. If you are curious, on a Mac, using the terminal, you can see what your local neighbourhood wireless country codes are by issuing the command:

/S*/*/P*/*/*/*/*/airport -s | open -ef

I note that some of the visible WiFi networks in our neighbourhood ARE advertising themselves as "CA" and are named "TEULS1234", and when I lookup their device MAC address with a tool such as at http://aruljohn.com/mac.pl it comes back as an Actiontec product, so at least SOME of Telus's Actiontec devices are properly advertising their country code.

This particular device is running firmware version 31.121L.17, and is providing Optik Internet 25mbps, TV, and Home Phone service.

Is there any way to get the v1000H to advertise the correct "CA" country code or no country code?

Maybe when I visit my father-in-law across town I will check what the country code of his Optik WiFi router is set to.
