Adaptation mechanisms, such as transmission power control (TPC) techniques, cognitive radio technology and intelligent antenna, have been applied to efficiently manage the use of resources on wireless ad hoc networks. However, these mechanisms open doors for Reduction of Quality (RoQ) attacks. Those attacks damage network services exploiting adaptation capability and they can be easily launched on mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). This paper assesses the influence of RoQ attacks on MANETs, aiming to provide insights and lead the design of control access mechanisms able to prevent or mitigate them. We evaluate MANETs supported by a modified IEEE 802.11 using unaware and aware TPC techniques. We analyze the impact of three types of RoQ attacks by simulations, and we show their effect over more dynamic aware TPC techniques.
