Can a wireless node still buffer packets when it's receiver is turned off? Hii .. As per my knowledge ... Normally the AP will buffer if the stations are in power save mode, by checking the mib details stored in AP. So if the receiver is turned off, the AP mib information doesn't conatin the details about that particular station. So it won't buffer the packets for that station.This is my answer...If this is correct or not.....??? Thanking you Krish :thumbsdown:

Can't say I am a total expert here, but I would think that this is one aspect that may vary from vendor to vendor depending on their power saving and start up speed requirements really. Just a guess but I would check it out.
