Manage the radio transmit power
By default, the transmit power for the radios on the access point is automatically assigned.
You can disable automatic power assignment and set a specific transmit power. However,
note the following:
•
If you set the transmit power too high, the access point might not be able to connect
to another WiFi device.
•
If you set the transmit power too low, WiFi clients might not be able to connect to
the access point.
IMPORTANT: Make sure that you comply with the regulatory requirements for total
radio frequency (RF) output power in your country.
WARNING:
Make sure that the country is set to the location where the device is
operating (see Change the country and region of operation on page 48). You are
responsible for complying with the local, regional, and national regulations that are set
for channels, power levels, and frequency ranges.
To manage the radio transmit power:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is directly connected
over WiFi to the access point or connected to the same network as the access point.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the access point.
If you are directly connected to the “CONFIG-ONLY” SSID, you can enter
https://www.aplogin.net.
A login window displays.
If you do not know the IP address, see Find the IP address of the access point on
page 33. For more information about the “CONFIG-ONLY” SSID, see 2.4 GHz
management SSID on page 58.
If your browser does not display a login window but displays a security message and
does not let you proceed, see Log in to the access point after you complete the initial
log-in process on page 35.
3. Enter the access point local device password and click the Login button.
