Power Usage under modem mode

If anyone has a power meter gadget could they please test the power usuage under idle and max downloading situations ?

I'm curious if the power usuage is smaller now the SH doesn't need to route traffic etc.

TIA

It would be nice to know instead of guessing but my feeling is the same as yours.

Re: Power Usage under modem mode

I'm curious about this one too. I'd like the power consumption as a router then in comparison in modem mode. I also would like the VMNG300 in comparison.
