Mesh Wifi - Would Google Wifi work for me?

[sbi85]

Hey all.

I am checking mesh solutions for our (new) home BUT in Hungary.
I've been checking up on Google Wifi and since I am in the UK frequently it would be easy to get one. (Google doesn't sell it in Hungary). Many reviews consider it a top3 option for residential mesh provider.
I like the solution but you can read such things as:
Note: We strongly recommend purchasing Google Wifi from the country where you'll be using it. Since wireless regulations vary by country, you may experience compatibility issues if you move your Wifi device(s) to a different country and Google will be unable to offer support. If you're setting up a mesh network, we recommend purchasing all of your Wifi points in the same country.

Further reading revealed that:
Meshed range extenders like Google Wifi would work in any country, but one should compare the frequency range against a list of WLAN channels permitted in their country, and check that the emitted isotropic radiated power (EIRP) of any Wi-Fi equipment does not exceed local restrictions.

Right now I have no clue how to do this.
The info I've found so far is a bit confusing. In most places it looks like wireless regulations are the same in the EU, and Europe is usually bunched up together: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WLAN_channels

So I am not 100% sure now if Google Wifi would work or not. Anyone have any experience in this?
Or have any pointers where I can look up additional information?

Much appreciated!

It will work.

You just need to check it won't be using channels it shouldn't be, and I don't think it would as long as you tell it you're in a European county.

Thanks. How would I go about checking that?
I tried googling a whole bunch of stuff related to that but got me nowhere :/

Hungary is the EU, and I believe that the same rules apply to all member states.

If you were buying in the USA for use in the EU you'd need to be more careful.

Thanks man. That's reassuring.
