Which is true with cell phones. But WiFi runs 100%. With any power reduction comes a data bandwidth reduction. Why would a WiFi port ever reduce power from 100% when that automatically means a reduction of signal to noise ratio and therefore a data bandwidth reduction below 54 Mb? I don't recall seeing any mention of transmitter power reduction or power control in 802.11 standards. Either it was on or it was off.
