The Green AP feature can be used for reducing the wireless router’s power
consumption. Before setting the Green AP duration, you need to first
configure the current time and Time Zone settings. Within the Green AP
duration, theWi-Fi radio’s transmit power can be set as reduced, or just
turned off. Less transmit power means the wireless router will only cover a
shorter range.
For example, the Green AP feature can be used to set the transmit power
to 25% during sleeping hours, or powered off while you are away. Up to
four Green AP periods can be configured.
