If Verilan has the ability to limit client power settings, these should
also be reduced as far as possible. Some drivers ignore these hints,
because the software driver authors know that MOAR POWER means better
connectivity, right?. Verilan may find that completely disabling a tiny
number of badly-behaved clients can dramatically improve quality of service
for everyone else.
