Awake Mode) Consumes the most power but offers the highest throughput. Is recommended for desktop computers and devices that use AC power.

~Max (Power Causes the access point to buffer Save Mode) 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 Switched between PSP mode and Save Mode) 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.
