Wireless Connectivity

• Best Performance/Best Battery Life Sliding Bar

Move the bar to balance between the performance of the WLAN card and length of the

battery life. Default is set to Best Performance. Not operable if the Power Save Mode is

Disable. The leftmost position on the sliding bar (Best Performance) indicates that the

WLAN station will listen to every beacon from the associated AP. The default beacon interval

is 100 ms for most APs. When the knob is dragged to the right-hand-side, the station will

listen to the beacon in multiple beacon intervals depending on the position on the slide bar.

The rightmost position (Best Battery Life) indicates the beacon interval is 10 times of AP’s

beacon interval, i.e. 1000 ms when the beacon interval is set to 100ms. For the Sliding bar

to take effect, the Power Save Mode needs to be either Always Enable or Auto Enable,

and you need to click on the Apply button.

• Apply Button
