Greetings,

Just wondering if anyone knows the status of implementing 802.11 Power
Saving? All the man pages for wifi adapters supporting HostAP mode
confirm it's not supported, e.g. ral(4):

"Host AP mode doesn't support power saving.  Clients attempting to use
power saving mode may experience significant packet loss (disabling
power saving on the client will fix this)."

My wife has just added an iPhone to the clients supported by my
OpenBSD wiresless access point and there appears to be no method of
disabling power saving on this device (surprise, surprise), so any
advice before I ditch my custom OpenBSD AP for something
shrink-wrapped will be much appreciated.

Cheers,
Damon
