Actually, you can set tx power with iw now:

I will note you will need 2.6.36, or compat-wireless-2.6.36, otherwise
you have to use iwconfig, setting txpower with nl80211 was only added
as of 2.6.36.

Thanks for the response.

I'm running with compat-wireless-2.6.36-rc3-1 and I'm finding that iw
doesn't work with fixed or limit:

$ sudo iw wlan0 set txpower fixed 20
command failed: Operation not supported (-95)

So it seems it's broken at the moment.
To where should I report the bug?

You can use bugzilla.kernel.org please report it there and we can fix
it. I can't look into right now though as I'm looking into another
issue. If someone else has cycles it would be appreciated.

I might be able to work on this, in wireless-testing tree at least.

Thanks,
Ben
