This is not a joke.

You are likely violating FCC laws by doing so, FYI. The router is tested & certified at the settings as shipped; modifying it invalidates that certification.
{edit} It's also quite common to burn things out after a while on these routers by maxing the TX power. Just because the setting is there buried in firmware doesn't mean the hardware can actually handle it.
{edit again} I see Don already pointed out the FCC angle but it doesn't hurt to repeat it. He's not kidding about lots of digits in the dollar amount if you're caught & fined.
