@purya97 I had similar issue, it seems Tx power unlock scripts are not currently working with routers having 6ghz band. however, BE routers likeASUS RT-BE88U (is a wifi7 but doesn't have 6ghz) seems to work fine => I was able to increase Tx power from 12 to 26
@francoism90 could you please confirm what's the actual Tx power according to those logs

@oaatiq I'm not adjusting TX-Power at the moment, because I bought an AiMesh setup.

As stated in the README, the router, firmware and hardware may ignore any overrules.
@francoism90 Thanks for your feedback, do you know how to push my RT-BE88U from 26.00 to 31 ?

my problem is wifi 2.4 being set to anything rather than E0.
the router keeps restarting, log me out of the ui giving the error that the user or password is in correct. so i keep need to reboot. and i found out that the router time is set to 1970s
after setting the 2.4 to E0 instead of #a the reboot and reconnection issue seems to be solved but still devices connecting to 2.4ghz keep disconnecting and reconnecting each second.
Any ideas what i got to do?
