Looking at this table I see that the high consumption happens when "test" beacon is enabled, whichever the state of "triumf."

Just guessing. Wouldn't it be possible that this consumptions happens because, as the N810 is not connected to this WLAN, every time a beacon arrives it must check whether it is a known WLAN to decide if it must automatically connect to it? If the beacon is sent every 100ms, the check will happen at this frequency. You can try sending the beacon with a lower frequency (i.e. 1/s) and check if the consumption goes down.

Alejandro.
