Re: Headlines - D-Link launches eco-friendly Wi-Fi routers

There is another aspect to this, by having a schedule that automatically switches off your WiFi during certain times of day when you know you're not going to be wanting it, no one else can use it. Extra security!

But wouldn't it be better to have it automatically switch its wifi off, if its not been used for say 30 minuites, and then have a button that you push to turn wifi on? That way when you pick up your laptop, you first whack that button. Surf for as long as you like, and 30 min after the last transmission, pop goes the weasel?
