Hello!

I need to reduce wifi signal strength to meet project requirements.
According to documentation - i tried to set it in sdkconfig to 6 dbm.

To check if it works i tried to measure it by Android phone in 5 metres distance.
But there no differences in 2 versions of firmware (6dbm and 20dbm). Absolutely no differencies.
I also tried to set 1dbm and the phone displays the same value as 6dbm and 20dbm.

Nevertheless, if I change the signal strength on the local Wifi Hotspot it changes and on the phone. So, the measurement seems to be correct.

As i set it in make menuconfig you can see in the eclosure.
ESP-IDF v3-dev

How to correct set WiFi power maximum?
I will be greatful for any help!
