I recently got a Palm T|X, and thus decided it was time to add wifi at home. I got a Wap11 v1.x from ebay and all was good. I then discovered the power boost ability. I made the change but my TX does not show it as being much better. This is just going by the level of the green scale in the TX itself.
So, should I be doing download speed tests from various distances to see if the power boost really worked, or is the TX really telling me that it did not work?
If it did not work, what might I be doing wrong?
I used ap-utils-1.5 in Linux and changed the radio settings for all channels to 128 (80h). It clearly took the values since ap-config still shows them there after a reset of the Wap11.
Oh, and I did upgrade the firmware to the latest that linksys offered, (1.4i.1). That jumped me from 64bit WEP to 128bit and added the IP filter.
