Hi All,
I am using rt2x00 drivers for RT3072 chipset.......for changing tx power, I am issuing "iw wlan0 set txpower fixed <value>".....The command succeeds(no error from command line). However the driver is not setting the value of the txpower....can you explain the logic of tx power setting by the driver and how to verify the change in txpower?

This is chanctx issue, tx power setting does not work at present for drivers that do not use chanctx. I'm looking for proper fix for this problem ...
