SM Power Save Mode

Displays whether this feature is enabled on the wireless client. The spatial multiplexing (SM)
power save mode allows an 802.11n client to power down all but one of its radios. This power
save mode has two sub modes of operation: static operation and dynamic operation.

Power Save Mode

Displays whether this feature is enabled or not. To prolong battery life, the 802.11 standard
defines an optional Power Save Mode, which is available on most 802.11 clients. End users
can simply turn it on or off via the card driver or configuration tool. With power save off, the
802.11 network card is generally in receive mode listening for packets and occasionally in
transmit mode when sending packets. These modes require the 802.11 NIC to keep most
circuits powered-up and ready for operation.

WMM Support

Displays whether WMM is enabled or not in order to provide data packet type prioritization
between the access point and connected client.
