How to Disable Min SNR and Min LQ in New UI?
I have a TPLink CPE710 and some CPE510s.

The CPE710 is a factory install of 3.25.2, and the CPE510s have been updated to 3.25.2.

In the "Radios and Antennas" section I see boxes for Min SNR, Max Distance, and Min Quality. When I enter 0, 0, and 0 for all three the Maximum Disance for the CPE710 comes back as 0 in the UI.

On the CPE510s, the UI shows my Max Distable set to "auto", and a 0 in the text entry box for it. I thought this was the way to set Max Distance parameter is auto. The Min SNR is set to 0 in the UI, but both Min SNR and Min Quality are missing from the text entry panel. I had the Min SNR/LQ setting disabled in the old UI, where there was a check box to disable it. 

I can't find a similar check box to disable Min SNR in the new UI. Where did it go to? And how do I set Max Distance to auto in the new UI.

Wiley, with all of the updates and improvements, all the stuff is now automated.  LQM, formerly Link Quality Manager, is now the Link Quality Monitor :-)

Automated?
Is the Link Quality Monitor on or off by default? If on, how does it set the minimums?

I upgraded nodes to 3.25.5 and I see the Min SNR / Min LQ parameters are gone from the settings panel. The Max Distance box is greyed out and set to 50.1 miles.

The update also reset the transmit power from 26 to 12 dbm on my CPE510. Does that parameter adjust itself?

LQM just monitors.  It no longer blocks things so it no longer needs a minimum to block against.
