Hi,
When the laptop uses Wireless, the fan spins more. I suppose the laptop needs more power to make the wireless adaptor work. Is the power consumption affected by the following factors:
- Encryption: does WPA2 consume more?
- Complexity of password: would a 64 characters long password require more power than a 10 chars pwd?
- Distance from Wireless router: would weaker signal strength need more processing from the laptop?
Thanks for any advice.
