    Is it possible to turn the wireless module off in the 1810TZ to save power? Im using a USB based 3G modem now and would like to maximize the battery time but I can't find a button for turning it off.

    Running Windows 7 Home Premium.

    Is the only way to find my way into the network devices settings and "disable" the wireless module there?
