Abstract

See full text

A method includes a wireless access point (WAP) automatically entering a power save mode in response to inactivity, wherein the power save mode includes powering off a transmitter of a WAP and reducing power to a processor and a receiver of the WAP. The method further includes periodically enabling the receiver to monitor for a probe request from a client device while the WAP is in the power save mode. Still further, the method includes automatically exiting the power save mode and entering an awake mode in response to receiving a probe request frame from a client device while the WAP is in the power save mode, wherein the awake mode includes powering on the transmitter of the WAP and increasing power to the processor and receiver of the WAP.
