A somewhat weird thing is that I get this low value only if wlan is powered on and running. After shutting sony-wifi down, power consumption goes up by ~1 W! - Can anybody explain this behaviour??

Strange, I cannot confirm that, more the other way round.

Yes, it's strange. I think the key is wlan power management. Did you set it to "on"?

    iwconfig wlan0 power on

With this setting and a running wlan I get lower power consumption than with a powered down wlan. Without power management, consumption is 1 W higher, and doesn't appear to depend much on the rfkill state.

Greetings,
Bernd
