Cisco 881W-GN-A-K9 Question

[zbresee08]

Hello all. I'm looking at purchasing a Cisco 881W router, but I noticed the transmit power is only 16dBm.  That seems pretty weak as many consumer grade products have a much higher powered radio.  Anyone have issues with this?  Feedback, ideas, etc?

Thank you in advance!

Doesn't really matter.  How much power can a wireless laptop pump anyway?

Good question.  I have a Broadcom 802.11n card in my laptop, I need to find the specs of the card to see what the transmit power is on that.  I doubt it will make much difference, but it's just curious to me as to why it would have such low power.
