It shouldn't matter where you live as long as you're paying for an internet connection for your modem to feed off of. I'm assuming this is the case seeing as you're online to post. Installing a router isn't really all that difficult. The unit comes with instructions )though those would be in English) but, it also comes with a website with those same instructions (that you could probably get translated into your own language) if that helps any. Without seeing the unit you're trying to connect it to, and the router itself I can't be much help. I can give you a little advice though. Try plugging the router in and wait for it to worm up. Then go to the computer you're trying to connect to and see if the computer detects it. You will know because it will show up as an unsecure line in your wi-fi search on your computer. If this is the case, you can connect to it.
