You didn't say what model of router, but here's a likely link:
http://web.belkin.com/support/down [...] ng=1&mode=

Where are you going to use the router? Belgium? France uses only channels
10-13. The rest of Europe uses channels 1-13. If you flash the router with
USA firmware, you'll only be able to use 1-11.
