Hi Jun:

Thanx for the quick response.
I search the previous post related to txpower.
There are a few talked about txpower.
However I get a little confused.
There is a post "txpower not working after reset [PATCH included]" posted in
Jun.
It looks like that txpower is working, but has a minor bug.
>From your mail, it seems that txpower is not working.
I download the hostap-0.0.4 and check it.
The txpower code is embraced by a MACRO RAW_TXPOWER_SETTING.
However this macro is not defined yet.
That's what you mean "I believe txpower control is removed from v0.0.4."


Thanx
William
