Selects maximum mode to let the access point buffer incoming messages
for the Adapter. The Adapter will detect the access point if any messages are waiting
periodically.

then switches back to power save mode after retrieving the packets.
• Off - Turns power saving off, thus powering up the Wireless USB Adapter continuously
for a short message response time.

• Infrastructure - All wireless clients will connect to an access point or wireless router.
• Ad-Hoc - Directly connecting to another computer, for peer-to-peer communication,
using wireless network adapters on each computer, such as two or more TL-WN721N
wireless adapters.

the adapters must be in Ad-Hoc mode to communicate.
