Forum Thread: AWUS036NHA Power Up.

Hi,

I've got the AWUS036H but the following steps work for me:

1. power down your network card (mine shows as wlan1): ifconfig wlan1 down
2. set your network card to a land code that allows higher tx power; GY for Guyana works for me: iw reg set GY
3. increase the tx power to 30 (the AWUSH036H allows up to 30 dbm): iwconfig wlan1 txpower 30
4. reactivate your network card: ifconfig wlan1 up
5. check the tx power with iwconfig

I hope this gets you out of the woods.

I believe I've tried this one, though used Bolivia instead Guyana, but iwconfig still showing me that I'm at 20, though figures seem to change on wavemon.
