I have noticed that when my computer in plugged in, the wireless strength increases. I'm assuming this is to do with power management.

Is there a way to disable Wireless Power Management?

I have found a few blog posts that show hacks to disable this but what is best practice here? Should there not be an option via the power menu that lets you toggle this?
