Hi,
I tried to send a comment to the Github issue https://github.com/openwrt/mt76/issues/633 many times but it disappears once I log out and the comment is gone. In response to
[MasterPIC]
According to 23.05.5 release notes (specifically 56a84b3 mac80211: Fix wifi throughput) wifi throughput has been improved.
Did someone test it? Any regression as for TX power?
I would like to say I checked after upgrading OpenWRT to 23.05.5 on my TL-WR902AC v3 and it doesn't seem to be fixed, the max. power I can select is only 12 dBm (15 mW) while the hardware supports up to 23 dBm.
# iwinfo phy1 txpower
0 dBm ( 1 mW)
1 dBm ( 1 mW)
2 dBm ( 1 mW)
3 dBm ( 1 mW)
4 dBm ( 2 mW)
5 dBm ( 3 mW)
6 dBm ( 3 mW)
7 dBm ( 5 mW)
8 dBm ( 6 mW)
9 dBm ( 7 mW)
10 dBm ( 10 mW)
11 dBm ( 12 mW)
12 dBm ( 15 mW)

Since I tried several times and it's impossible to post on Github I post it here in case a dev sees it or someone can take it to the Github issue. Thanks
Edit: I know there is a new version 24.10.0, I haven't upgraded yet and I'll check once I do. I've been trying to send the above to Github since I did the upgrade to 23.05.5 like 7 months ago.
