Power Property Page
Use the Power property page to set the Wireless Networker power consumption mode and
the radio transmission power. The Wireless Networker has two power consumption modes.
The Automatic Power Saving Mode is the default power mode setting.
Clear the Automatic Power Saving Mode checkbox and use the sliding scale in the Manual
Power Saving Mode field to select a performance index (1 to 5) suited to the intended
operation of the adapter. Each mode is described underneath the sliding scale.
Figure 4-9. Power Property Page
Use the Radio Transmission Power field to set the power level for data transmitted to either
an access point (Infrastructure mode) or other adapters in an Ad Hoc cell (Ad Hoc or
Enhanced Ad Hoc mode). Set the mode for each adapter using the Mode property page.
Adjusting the adapter transmit power level enables users to expand or confine a
transmission area in respect to interference or other wireless devices that could be
operating nearby. Reducing a coverage area in high traffic areas improves transmission
quality by reducing the number of missed beacons and noise in that coverage area.
