I have laptop with ath5k card, and just tried to run it with ath5k driver. I notice strange thing: lappi ~ # iw phy phy0 info Wiphy phy0 Band 1: Frequencies: * 2412 MHz [1] (20.0 dBm) * 2417 MHz [2] (20.0 dBm) * 2422 MHz [3] (20.0 dBm) I guess it is too high. I am not sure it is actual value, but if it is right and actual value, then i am exceeding local regulations. I have simple spectrum analyzer (spectran), and i can try to test actual output power if required. Another thing, is it possible to change antenna output?
