To WiFi users.

Do you reduce your router’s WiFi Transmit Power to the bare minimum as required by you?

  • Do you just keep it at the default 100%
  • Did you not know you could reduce it (until now)
  • Are you not able to control “your” WiFi router because it’s the ISP provided router and they didn’t give you the password?
  • Do you actually require the 100% !?

    I just keep it at the lowest power (20%) and am right now getting > -50dB (5 bars).
    Of course, if you are doing it for the efficiency, you will also need to make sure that your receiver is not having a hard time with the low transmit power.

    So, not caring, definitely works.
