Why do you want to limit power? It does little good as a security precaution. For Wi-Fi, the only real security is encryption. Once you have done that, the other supposed security measures -- hiding the SSID, filtering by MAC, reducing power -- are pointless.

The Buffalo wzr-hp-g450h has a power setting, but it is unknown if the power is continuously variable.
