So I've been trying to get more out of my internet for quite a while now. We have spend a very long time choosing proper hardware, but still the internet seems to be disconnecting for some random reason every couple hours. Not for long (5 min or so), but while playing it is very annoying if you get disconnected 
. It is most likely interference (I notice that I get disconnected a lot when people walk upstairs / my brother starts up his computer with the same wireless extender).
Anyway, now I am trying to get the most out of my router + AP as a last resort.
My AP has a default TX power or 26dBm, the max I can put it on is 29dBm. According to what I've read this could improve my connection... Will I be able to change this without frying my access point? The model is: Engenius ECB300. It didn't seem like a big difference at first, but when converted to mW the difference is quite big (which made me wonder if it is a smart thing to try).

. If it isn't too hot after a couple hours I will assume it is safe enough
