For those with the buffalo routers: What is your transmit power set to? - microchip13 - 06-21-2007
Now in the basement, my wireless is a bit spotty.
I have my Xmit power set to 36 in ddWRT. I'm curious what everyone else has theirs set to.
TiA!

I would crank it up to full-on brain cancer power if you can.

28mW, but I've got the high power model with the dual amplifiers. So I have no idea what that second one boosts the power to.

Hmm. In ddWRT, it's not mw it's just a number.
Currently I have mine at 36 whatevers.
I know it's a range of 21-251 but I don't know what to put it to.

Actually, I take that back. It is mW.
I have it at 36. I wonder what I can pump it up to.

On the buffalo models, 70 is a recommended value for maximum power. but...if you get five bars in your whole house, consider dropping it back a bit. There is no reason why network needs to flood into everyone else's space.
blusubaru has the high power model which has a separate signal booster. Increasing the value can only add noise.
