Just place your WLAN AP on a visible location, and then start pinging it, walking away. If you reach 300m before ping fails, you need more power or better antenna.
It's easy, yes. As long as you have clear line of sight. It may involve climbing on the roof to install it, depending on environment.
If you reach 300m before ping fails... doesn't it mean there is no need for more power or better antenna? :-/ confused
Best wishes.
oh, I made a typo there, of course what I meant to say is "If you do not reach 300m before ping fails, you need more power or better antenna."
