 we need some advice to choose the right TX power. We still wonder if TX power +4dBm is the best choice or better use the default 0dBm. 
 
 Here is some background:

&lt;p&gt;As Jimmy suggests, the range estimator is a great tool for evaluating what difference the various TX powers. You should not run into trouble with certifications when using 0 or +4 dBm. The examples are set to use 0dBm TX power to have a default TX power for all examples.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best regards,&lt;/p&gt;
