    how to increase tx power

    Hi, how can i increase tx power, "wl txpwr1" command gives me: "TxPower is 127 qdbm, 31.75 dbm, 1496 mW Override is Off"...
    txpwr1 Set tx power in in various units. Choose one of (default: dbm):
    -d dbm units
    -q quarter dbm units
    -m milliwatt units
    Can be combined with:
    -o turn on override to disable regulatory and other limitations
    Use wl txpwr -1 to restore defaults

    I tried to increase all of them but without positive results... maybe i should turn on override, but i don't know how?

    please help

    please look at this first: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DBm
    30dbm is quite a bit
    you may set it that high, but the power supply can't handle that I guess...
    also, direct input settings don't work for me, when I try to save them with nvram they also don't work...
    so... I have no idea, maybe you need to search a bit on the forums

    the trick that worked for me is a laptop cooler...
    if you cool ur asus properly, it somehow transmits a bit more
    according to the ffc results from rocket the router transmits about 24.5dbm at normal settings.
    wich means about 280mw in draft N
    that is higher than the europian allowed 100mw
