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.
Orbi BE systems have never had power adjustments. Was removed before they released.
Also it's up to devices to pick and choose where they connect too. Some devices will not lock on to a stronger signal even though there locked on to a weaker signal. How they handle that is on the Device Mfr. User can force this by disconnecting or disabling the wifi radio on the device for 5 seconds then re-enable it and usually the device will lock on to the stronger signal.
So this manual from June 2024 was before their release date? https://www.manualslib.com/manual/3533577/Netgear-Orbi-770-Series.html?page=67#manual
