 To me, I can adjust the TX power with the help of iwconfig (change
 wlan0 to whatever you used for your wireless interface):

 sudo iwconfig wlan0 txpower auto  (this is the default)

 sudo iwconfig wlan0 txpower fixed (if you would like the TX power to a
 fixed value)

 sudo iwconfig wlan0 txpower 10 (set your txpower to 10dBm)

 I am not sure how to get those level with iw command. But you can check
 your current TX power setting with:

 iwlist wlan0 txpower

 if you would like to know more about it, try "man iwconfig" and search
 for txpower.

 Hope this helps.
