Power level of Access point

Level 1

I am currently running WCS 7.0.164 and 1130 series access point firmware 7.0.98.0.

I am getting lot of complains from students that their laptops are not getting 5 bars signals.   They are getting at least 1 or 2 bars with being disconnect frequency.

Problem is that the nearest 2 access points are showing TX power level 2.   For the testing purpose, I increase tx power level to 8 on both access points and the laptop show 5 bars signals.

The layout of dorm is 3  (2 bedrooms / 2 persons per bedroom plus bathroom and living room) suites per wings.The walls are concrete.

I was told that using custom setting for TX level power is not recommend.

What are the solution to this problem?    Use custom setting or what?
