A method for reducing power consumption of a terminal that communicates with a base station in a mobile communication system using a multi-carrier structure composed of a primary component carrier and at least one secondary component carrier comprises: receiving a discontinuous reception (DRX) parameter group for multi carriers from the base station; and setting the multi carriers to the same parameter value, by using the received parameter group.

A driver of an Ethernet controller may determine, based on an interrupt received from a PHY circuit coupled to the Ethernet controller, that a connection between the PHY circuit and a remote device was established using auto-negotiation over a physical communication medium. The driver may determine a speed of the connection. The driver may, based on a determination that the speed of the connection is not a first predetermined speed, enable auto-negotiation between the PHY circuit and the Ethernet controller to establish a link at a second speed that is different than the first predetermined speed.
