not necessary. Change the Transmit Power Level setting back to 100%. No further
action is required.
—OR
— equal to the maximum possible link rate value of 54 Mbps, then the 50% reduction has
no adverse affect on operation and further reduction may be needed. Proceed to the
next step.
4. Reduce the power to 25% and recheck the link rate.
a. Repeat step 3 using a Transmit Power Level of 25%.
b. Check if link rate is decreased from the maximum possible value. If the link rate value
using the 25% setting is now...
— lower than the maximum possible value of 54 Mbps, then the 25% power reduction is
not necessary. Change the Transmit Power Level setting back to 50% as explained in
step 3. No further action is required.
—OR
— equal to the maximum possible link rate value of 54 Mbps, then the 25% reduction has
no adverse affect on operation and further reduction is not necessary. Retain the 25%
setting. No further action is required.
Note: The above procedure should be repeated when relocating the wireless adapter within the
current wireless network or to a wireless network in a new location.
