17. A wireless access point, comprising:
a wireless transceiver; and
an adaptive configuration control module, the adaptive configuration control module configured to:
set the wireless access point to operate in a full-capability operating configuration comprising a plurality of features:
detect power supplied to the wireless access point;
determine one or more of an operating parameter of the wireless access point, an operating parameter of a neighboring access point of the wireless access point, and an operating parameter of a client device wirelessly connected to the wireless access point;
dynamically determine a subset of the plurality of features a reduced-capability operating configuration in response to detecting the power supplied to the wireless access point is less than a power threshold based on the one or more determined operating parameters of the wireless access point, the neighboring access point, and the client device; and
set the wireless access point to the dynamically determined reduced-capability operating configuration.
