Abstract
A method and apparatus for controlling transmit and receive power level of a mesh point (MP) operating in a mesh wireless communication network of a plurality of MPs. Power capability information of a new MP is sent to at least one existing MP in the mesh network. The existing MP accepts the new MP as a member of the mesh network and sends allowed power setting information to the new MP. The new MP adjusts its power level in accordance with the allowed power setting information.
