- If you are trying to raise this, you are almost definately out of luck.
- -9dBm is the maximum that the FCC allows, so modems are made not to
- transmit at higher levels. If you are trying to lower this level (i.e. for
- a cellular line that can't handle that high a level), see if it has a -U
- option. This may only affect MNP10, but using MNP10 might not be a bad
- idea if the lines are the problem.
