iwlwifi consuming too much power (12W)

Hi,
I've configured my system and had battery consumption about 4W (arch with i3). But last week I can't get under 12W. powertop says that `Network interface: wlp2s0 (iwlwifi)' has usage `7.1pkts/s` and estimated power is `12W`.
Is there any way to decrease it to 1W or less again?
PS: In tunables is everything set to GOOD except autosuspend for USB -  my mouse.

Thanks for any idea.
