    Anyone know what the actual power consumption of this router is? I'm looking at using on a system run totaly on battery power. TIA!

    Thank you very much! That's a HUGE improvement over the antique laptop I'm using right now.

    10W would be the maximum consumption possible since the adaptor can only deliver 5V @ 2.0A (10W). The actual consumption (especially when you're not using any usb device) will be much lower.
