Also, most of us use multiple devices daily, and these <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">devices run on batteries<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. However, the batteries they run on are not that permanent.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, we come up with different ways to save battery life and improve the performance of our devices. One of those ways is the Wi-Fi power-saving mode. So, we\u2019ll discuss what Wi-Fi power-saving mode is, its benefits, how it can affect Wi-Fi, and how to toggle it on different devices.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>What Is Wi-Fi Power Saving Mode?<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-6443 size-full\" title=\"What Is Wi-Fi Power Saving Mode\" src=\"https:\/\/routerctrl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/What-Is-Wi-Fi-Power-Saving-Mode.jpg\" alt=\"What Is Wi-Fi Power Saving Mode\" width=\"600\" height=\"189\" srcset=\"https:\/\/routerctrl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/What-Is-Wi-Fi-Power-Saving-Mode.jpg 600w, https:\/\/routerctrl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/What-Is-Wi-Fi-Power-Saving-Mode-300x95.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Wi-Fi power saving mode is a neat feature you may have on your device that comes with two significant benefits. The first one is, as it\u2019s called, battery saving. It\u2019s because as long as we\u2019re <a href=\"https:\/\/routerctrl.com\/stay-safe-on-public-wi-fi\/\">connected to Wi-Fi<\/a>, our device is using up battery power.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The second benefit is related to data usage. It\u2019s quite common to disregard data usage when you\u2019re connected to an unlimited plan. However, if you have a limited plan with your ISP (Internet Service Provider), you should mind the data usage, and this is where Wi-Fi power saving mode comes in handy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Usually, what the Wi-Fi power saving mode feature does is analyze the way you use your device in terms of wireless connection and change the time Wi-Fi is on. Luckily, we can turn the feature off if we don\u2019t want to use it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Recommended reading:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/routerctrl.com\/if-you-use-someones-wi-fi-can-they-see-your-texts\/\">If You Use Someone\u2019s Wi-Fi, Can They See Your Texts?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/routerctrl.com\/wi-fi-so-bad\/\">Why Is My Wi-Fi So Bad All of a Sudden?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/routerctrl.com\/can-someone-on-the-same-wi-fi-see-your-history\/\">Can Someone on the Same Wi-Fi See Your History?<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There\u2019s actually only one good reason you might not want to <a href=\"https:\/\/routerctrl.com\/how-to-turn-off-wifi-on-optimum-router\/\">turn off Wi-Fi<\/a> power-saving mode, and that\u2019s being disconnected. Being disconnected can mean that you don\u2019t get notifications about your emails, messages, etc. Especially if you\u2019re using apps to communicate instead of regular messaging.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Why Use Wi-Fi Power Saving Mode?<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The reason you should use Wi-Fi power-saving mode is the longer battery life for your battery-powered devices. This is a major benefit, and it\u2019s provided by different power-saving features. These power-saving features are:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>DMS<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: The Directed Multicast Service means that broadcast and multicast transmission rates are much faster because they are directed at the device. Also, it reduces the traffic on different channels.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Proxy ARP<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: This is the Proxy Address Resolution Protocol, and to put it simply, the main router within a network answers requests that are meant for other devices. Thus, it lessens the load on those devices and saves power.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Idle period<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Instead of devices constantly communicating with internet access points, they are simply associated with them, and they can conserve battery life.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Neighbor discovery<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: It\u2019s quite similar to the Proxy Address Resolution Protocol, and it preserves power by responding instead of the client. So, these are four features that are meant to preserve battery power.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Does Wi-Fi Power Saving Mode Affect Wi-Fi?<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The obvious answer is yes, in terms of when the device connects to the wireless network. But, it doesn\u2019t affect the data in any way. As mentioned, it can be annoying if you\u2019re expecting an email or a message on social media because you might not get the notification.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you disable <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ghacks.net\/2018\/11\/20\/reduce-android-battery-drain-on-wi-fi\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wi-Fi power saving mode<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, it can considerably increase the power consumption on your device. Having the adapter working when there\u2019s no <a href=\"https:\/\/routerctrl.com\/mobile-hotspot-connected-but-no-internet-access-windows-10\/\">wireless hotspot<\/a> available also drains power.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most devices have it enabled by default, so the fundamental question we get from our readers is how to turn it off. Luckily, there are different procedures for different devices and we\u2019re going to discuss where this setting is located.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>How to Toggle Wi-Fi Power Saving Mode?<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The most common devices people use to browse the internet and do other things while maintaining a wireless internet connection usually run on <a href=\"https:\/\/routerctrl.com\/windows-10-no-internet-access-but-internet-works\/\">Windows 10<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/routerctrl.com\/my-phone-is-connected-to-wi-fi-but-no-internet-android\/\">Android<\/a>, or iOS. So, we will not discuss how to do it on Linux-based systems, even if there is such an option.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Windows Wi-Fi Power-Saving Mode<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-6441 size-full\" title=\"Windows Wi-Fi Power-Saving Mode\" src=\"https:\/\/routerctrl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Windows-Wi-Fi-Power-Saving-Mode.jpg\" alt=\"Windows Wi-Fi Power-Saving Mode\" width=\"686\" height=\"453\" srcset=\"https:\/\/routerctrl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Windows-Wi-Fi-Power-Saving-Mode.jpg 686w, https:\/\/routerctrl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Windows-Wi-Fi-Power-Saving-Mode-300x198.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 686px) 100vw, 686px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For Windows 10 devices, you need to go to <\/span><b>Settings <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&gt; <\/span><b>System<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Once you\u2019re there, click on <\/span><b>Power &amp; Sleep<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> on the left pane. Locate the <\/span><b>Additional power settings <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">button under <\/span><b>Related settings<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Click on it, and click <\/span><b>Change plan settings <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">next to your current plan. After that, you need to click on <\/span><b>Change advanced power settings<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. A window will pop up, and you need to locate <\/span><b>Wireless Adapter Settings<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Expand the section and expand the <\/span><b>Power Saving Mode <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">section. There, you\u2019ll see two options, <\/span><b>On battery <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and <\/span><b>Plugged in<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. You need to select <\/span><b>Maximum Performance <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">for both to disable Wi-Fi power saving. Click <\/span><b>Apply<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and that\u2019s it. If you prefer to leave it on, just change the settings.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Android Wi-Fi Power-Saving Mode<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To disable the Wi-Fi power saving mode on any Android device, the procedure goes like this. Go to your device\u2019s <\/span><b>Settings<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Tap on <\/span><b>Wireless and network<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Once you\u2019re there, go to<\/span><b> Wi-Fi settings<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Then, tap on <\/span><b>Advanced<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019ll need to locate the <\/span><b>Wi-Fi sleep policy<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. It should say <\/span><b>Never<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Once you\u2019re finished with this, the Wi-Fi power-saving mode will be disabled. The steps may vary between system versions, but they\u2019re all more or less the same.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>iOS Wi-Fi Power-Saving Mode<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-6442 size-full\" title=\"Low Power Mode iPhone\" src=\"https:\/\/routerctrl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Low-Power-Mode-iPhone.jpg\" alt=\"Low Power Mode iPhone\" width=\"450\" height=\"308\" srcset=\"https:\/\/routerctrl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Low-Power-Mode-iPhone.jpg 450w, https:\/\/routerctrl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Low-Power-Mode-iPhone-300x205.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unfortunately, iOS devices don\u2019t have a setting specifically related to Wi-Fi power saving mode, but they do have a power-saving mode setting called <\/span><b>Low Power Mode<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This affects the performance overall, so it might be good to turn it off for a better wireless connection.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To do so, we need to go to <\/span><b>Settings<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Once there, just tap on <\/span><b>Battery<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and you\u2019ll see the option to toggle <\/span><b>Low Power Mode<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> on or off. Turning it on will improve your device\u2019s battery life, but it will negatively affect performance.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wi-Fi power-saving mode is a great thing when you\u2019re choosing battery life over performance. It\u2019s a feature suitable for smartphones because it provides us a possibility to stay available for longer periods.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, there\u2019s no point in running Wi-Fi power saving mode on a Windows 10 laptop or PC because these are usually plugged in when we\u2019re using them. So, it\u2019s best to turn them off for these devices.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The technology is advancing and looking for more permanent solutions to power usage.

I hold a bachelor\u2019s degree in information systems, and I\u2019m a certified network specialist. I worked for several internet providers in LA, San Francisco, Sacramento, and Seattle over the past 21 years. I worked as a customer service operator, field technician, network engineer, and network specialist. During my career in networking, I\u2019ve come across numerous modems, gateways, routers, and other networking hardware. I\u2019ve installed network equipment, fixed it, designed and administrated networks, etc. Networking is my passion, and I'm eager to share everything I know with you. On this website, you can read my modem and router reviews, as well as various how-to guides designed to help you solve your network problems. I want to liberate you from the fear that most users feel when they have to deal with modem and router settings. My favorite free-time activities are gaming, movie-watching, and cooking. I also enjoy fishing, although I\u2019m not good at it. What I\u2019m good at is annoying David when we are fishing together. Apparently, you\u2019re not supposed to talk or laugh while fishing \u2013 it scares the fishes.","url":"https:\/\/routerctrl.com\/author\/brsckvn\/"}]}},"uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":false,"thumbnail":false,"medium":false,"medium_large":false,"large":false,"1536x1536":false,"2048x2048":false,"yarpp-thumbnail":false},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"Jeremy Clifford","author_link":"https:\/\/routerctrl.com\/author\/brsckvn\/"},"uagb_comment_info":0,"uagb_excerpt":"The technology is advancing and looking for more permanent solutions to power usage.
