I think Tomato and Svensoft firmware give radio power controls for
extending the range of the wifi AP. On my Quidway, as I observed with many
home routers, the router needs rebooting once every 48-72 hours. Symptoms
would be link speed slowing down. Reason that I figured out - logs are in
memory and as the memory is close to full, this happens. Looks like the
infrastructure is lean and dos not have syslog kind of software to rotate/
limit/ manage logs.
