Re: [Madwifi-users] Max tx power capability

[Queenie de M. <que...@gm...>]

Thanks for your replies.

The reason I asked is because I have different MiniPCI WiFi cards with
varying Tx power max limits.
Iam creating an application, Webpage based
For Tx power, the options i have provided are (low, Medium, High)
when user clicks on high... (this would be card dependent- max tx power of
card)

If this value is stored anywhere, i could use it..
Else... i guess... will have to iwlist the txpower avaliable and write some
code (dunno.. i can try)
but if nayone knows any easier method, pl let me know.

Regards
Queenie
