Title:
Please give NM the ability to set Tx power
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Hello,
This is the fragment of my wireless configuration:
[802-11-wireless]
ssid=PB1202
mode=infrastructure
tx-power=4
mac-address=C0:18:85:XX:XX:XX
security=802-11-wireless-security
However, network-manager never sets the tx-power to this value.
I can easily set it using:
iwconfig wlan0 txpower 4
But it is just a volatile configuration. in my case, both wl and
brcmsmac allows txpower.
