Thanks.

The relevant limit in Canada and the USA appears to be 1 W. http://www.bcwireless.net/moin.cgi/Regulatory#Using_the_Unlicensed_2.4GHz_radio_spectrum http://www.ic.gc.ca/eic/site/smt-gst.nsf/eng/sf01320.html http://www.afar.net/tutorials/fcc-rules/ (For both Debian and Windows!) A laptop marketed in Canada or the USA might be illegal for use in Europe, even if Debian is replaced with LiMux? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LiMux Power density should be more pertinent to interference than total radiated power. Location should also be pertinent. In an urban location, the neighbour can be a few m away whereas in a rural location the neighbour can be half a km away. But reference to density and location might introduce unaccepable complexity. Thanks for the replies, ...
