Orbi 770s wheres the transmit power option?
The documentation says there should be an option to control transmit power. Number 1 rule of setting up wifi is balancing the power transmission. Just because my device can hear the router screaming...

Yes it was scrapped before launch.
Most of the User manuals are templates for all Orbi systems and not really tuned for each Orbi model. Ya they should be. Orbi AC, AX and AXE have the power controls which reflects in the UM. BE systems don't. I don't think NG will bring it back. Unless it's a major issue causing problems for lots of users, I wouldn't look for it to return.

In what world would there ever be a valid a reason to remove the ability to control the transmit power? What version did they remove it in? Hopefully I can at least downgrade back to sanity.
