Looking for: "Overwrite Group Output Power Setting" for a given AP.
Heat mapping our 6th floor and I need to turn down that AP's transmit power.

On the USG 700 is was easy, you clicked on the AP in the "Mgt. AP List" to adjust it.

How do I the same thing on the 700H?

    Hi @jef ,

    Current Workaround: To change the output power for a specific AP, you must currently move that AP to a new AP group and configure the power settings there.

    Upcoming Enhancement: In October, we will add a feature that allows you to override group output power settings for individual APs within a group, similar to the functionality available in USG FLEX 700.

    For updates on USG FLEX H firewall's new features and enhancements, please follow our Security News & Releases.

    Thanks, but I can't move it to a different AP group, it would not be part of roaming.

    Hi @jef ,

    APs don't need to be in an AP group to enable wireless client roaming.

    The roaming process can be achieved by configuring the same SSID name and security settings across your AP (AP groups). Additionally, ensure there is 15-20% overlapping coverage between APs.
