Still, any of our more technically inclined here, please explain how they can improve the dBm signal through software, besides increasing mW level and decrease battery life? I think the device is as designed and Sammy was trying to milk as much battery life as they could. Ditto for the weak wifi. OEMs keep stuffing new tech in the devices, but no new battery tech to keep it all in check.
People mention the TB update helped it, but the TB did not have a weak signal, but did have an unstable hand-off with 3G/4G that would cause it to lose all data signal.
Added; Sorry byrds8, missed your post, since had not updated page in a little bit. The problem there as you probably appreciate is that can make the signal more unstable (lower mW). Kind of like a see-saw and finding the right balance. The balance though is defined by the radio chip used and the design of the antenna array.
My understanding is most radio chips now do not have much room to play and power is more a binary state, rather than a variable one (can not adjust them, per say). Wifi though can still be adjusted.
