Guys,

Tonight I was looking at the output from TXpower debug as I moved my computer 
away from the AP, and 
began to wonder why the "desired power" was not changing as I did so. After 
dumping the portion of 
shared memory used in the calculation, I found that addresses 0x0058, 0x005A, 
0x0070 and 0x0072 
always contain 0x7F7F, which is supposed to be the indication that no 
transmissions have been sent. 
Somewhere we seem to have missed a signal to the firmware to update these TSSI 
values, and the 
desired power never changes. Suddenly, the low power and the lack of 
adaptability with distance are 
no longer a mystery.

Does this ring any bells in the reverse engineering camp?

Would making a ring buffer containing the last 4 RSSI values be a first 
approximation to the TSSI's?

Larry
