Looks mostly reasonable to me. Did you try 'iwconfig wlan0 power on'? If you're feeling adventurous, try iwlcore.no_sleep_autoadjust=0 and 'iwconfig wlan0 power on'. The combination works for me and decreases power consumption a lot at the cost of a little bit of latency. --Andy _______________________________________________ linux-pm mailing list linux-pm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-pm
