Setting the country for wifi (crda)

General Discussion
1

I’d like to use channel 13 which is not available in the default configuration.
“iw reg get” tells me the country is 00 (not set, i guess)

I edited /etc/default/crda, but it doesn’t change the country.
“iw reg set” works, but only until the next reboot. How do i make this permanent?
On a beaglebone green.

Each of the tools we use by default, connman, wpa_cli, iwd has it’s own option for setting this. How are you connecting to wifi?

Ok, I’m using connman. But I can’t find a setting to define the country.

I solved it by creating a file /etc/modprobe.d/wifi-region.conf where I added:
options cfg80211 ieee80211_regdom=DE

Maybe there is a more elegant solution?
