Comment (by [EMAIL PROTECTED]):
compiled cleanly with gcc 3.3.6, it works here for either 802.11b/g and
802.11a - i have tested this way of usage : iwconfig athX txpower Y ,
where Y is from 1 to 17 - it also accepts higher values but it seems
without effect . During tests, i have found that real decrease in txpower
roughly fit to given value, for example if you set iwconfig ath0 txpower
10 , the other side shows decrement in signal of about 5-7 . So patch
works as it should. Tested it with regdomain 0 and regdomain 96, both gave
me about same results.
