2.12.38 ARP-Handling

A station in the LAN attempting to establish a connection to a WLAN station which is in power-save mode will often fail or only succeed after a considerable delay. The reason is that the delivery of broadcasts (such as ARP requests) to stations in power-save mode cannot be guaranteed by the base station.

If you activate ARP handling, the base station responds to ARP requests on behalf of the stations associated with it, thus providing greater reliability in these cases.
