Abstract
A method and apparatus for adapting a wireless terminal to different short-range wireless network requirements based on a region of operation associated with a location of the wireless terminal as described herein. The wireless terminal determines a region of operation associated with the location of the wireless terminal. Exemplary regions of operation may include a country or a group of countries. Based on the determined region of operation, a controller in the wireless terminal configures a short-range wireless transceiver in the wireless terminal to operate within one or more operating parameters.
