to inform you, I am the one who wrote that guide... except for the wl -i eth2 txpwr 84Quote:

and why should it be smarter to change it to 65-75mWH ?
so that the signal would get better or something?
Here is a WL500g measurement with a R&S spectrum analyzer. Please notice the 8dBm difference (19mW = 12,7dBm, 84mW = 19,2 dBm). This is measured with an Antenna, no direct connection to the Spectrum Analyzer.

The Following picture shows a direct connection:

Hi,
nice pictures, but I've some quetsions about them. Did you measured WL500g in AP or client mode? I thought, if there are no clients associated to AP, it transmit just something like "hello, I'm here" and no standard traffic signal. And if you have your spectrum analyzer connected directly on coax, I'm sure there are no clients associated. So, do you thing that signal on your picture is this "hallo" signal? Did this signal have same strenght, like traffic?
And about client mode. I use wl500b in client mode, AP distance is about 500 meters and it's same link quality if txpwr is 1 or 84. No packetloss or something like this. So I've some doubt about txpwr setting. I tried to measure power with RF powermeter, but I wasn't succesfull. I gues that not associated client is just listening and no transmiting. What do you thanks tenis
What is the name of that program you used for analyzing signal? I need a good program to find what is wrong with my network. I get ping timeout every 57 sec on my Asus WL-500g based network.Quote:

It is permanetly.Quote:

hi @ all,
i use the new firmware from oleg. and i need to boost up the transmission power.
i do it by the guide from page 1 with this command
/usr/sbin/wl -i eth2 txpwr 84
but i get this error massage?
eth2: No such device
txpwr Set tx power in milliwatts. Range [1, 84]. (Deprecated: Use txpwr1 instead)
so if i understand it right, all i have to do is this command?
txpwr84
is this right?
however I don't think this makes much difference...Code:[admin@wl root]$ wl -i eth2 txpwr1 -m 84
[admin@wl root]$ wl -i eth2 txpwr1
TxPower is 77 qdbm, 19.25 dbm, 84 mW Override is Off
If you also don't see a difference in power, try:
wl atten 0 0 120
If you are doing this on a wl-500g deluxe: eth1 is the wireless interface...Quote:

thats what i like to boost up.
my router is the wl500g deluxe so what i have to write for command to boost up transmission? is the how to on the first page wrong? or i do somthing wrong?
# /usr/sbin/wl -i eth1 txpwr1 -m 85Quote:

(it seems to go to nearest 0.25 dbm)
@ WVR,
big thx it's a great support thank you
new problem,
i setup my wl500g to 84mw transmission power.
one off the routers lose allways the power from 84 to 1mw without doing anything firmware of both is same newest release from oleg.
what can i do or did some one knows this f.. problem?:confused:
