Hello everyone,

Most of the WLAN cards work in four different modes.
viz.
1. Transmit mode
2. Receive mode
3. Idle and
4. Sleep mode.

Could you please tell me the difference between Idle and Receive mode.
How could there be a power consumption when a WLAN is in sleep mode ? Whats the difference between Idle and Sleep mode.

Thanks so much,
Manigandan
