Nightly 2224 (and previous) limit TX Power to 25 dBm #674
Comments
I need to split out the LHG variants into their own builds (which is what I really should have done from the beginning) which will fix this issue. |
The LHG has a high power and a low power variant. Indeed the vendor specs for the low power variant is max 25dBm: https://mikrotik.com/product/RBLHG-5nD. The RBLHG-5HPnD specs are 28dBm max. The motherboard may be the same from a linux and driver perspective, but the hardware (particularly the power amp) appears not to be on these 2 variants. On the low power variant, do the command "iw phy phy0 info" and see what the max power shows by each channel (this is defined in the vender flash partition). Even if AREDN attempts to exceed this value, the radio will not go higher than what is shown by this iw command. |
Can we close this? |
Yes. |
