incoming messages for the client
adapter, which wakes up periodically
and polls the access point to see if any
buffered messages are waiting for it.
The PC card can request each
message and then go back to sleep.
Conserves the most power but offers
the lowest throughput. Is
recommended for devices which
power consumption is the ultimate
concern (such as small
battery-powered devices).
~ Fast (Power
Save Mode)
Switched between PSP mode and
CAM mode, depending on network
traffic. This mode switched to CAM
when retrieving a large number of
packets and switches back to PSP
after the packets have been retrieved.
It is recommended when power
consumption is a concern but you
need greater throughput than that
allowed by Max PSP.
