Abstract

These teachings provide for transmitting to a wireless access point a sleep status indicator for a wireless transceiver. These teachings then provide for delaying having that wireless transceiver enter a sleep mode of operation until at least a predetermined period of time following transmission of the wireless transceiver sleep status indicator. These teachings also provide for determining a need to slow down a rate of receiving data from the wireless access point via the wireless transceiver. In this case the aforementioned sleep status indicator is transmitted in response to determining that need to slow down the rate of receiving data from the wireless access point.
