List,

Does ath9k increase or decrease txpower based on rssi value or temperature?
Any information will be appreciated.

Luis,

I just want to know if ath9k handles txpower based on rssi because I see ath9k deals with TPC (transmit power control).

Don't think that is the case, IIRC we just transmit at the max allowed
tx power. And that is whole chapter in itself, maybe even a book.

I ask what you are trying to do as last you asked about some things,
I asked for clarification and never got an answer. Curious if you are
trying to accomplish something specific to try to better understand
your questions.
