Highest: Maximum Coverage: Set the adapter to a maximum
transmit power level. Select for maximum performance and range in
environments with limited additional WiFi radio devices.
NOTE: The optimal setting is for a user to always set the transmit
power at the lowest possible level that is still compatible with the
quality of their communication. This allows the maximum number of

NOTE: This setting takes effect when either Network (Infrastructure)
or Device to Device (ad hoc) mode is used.
