Enable or disable Wi-Fi multimedia for a radio

Wi-Fi multimedia (WMM) prioritizes WiFi voice and video traffic over the WiFi link. By
default, WMM is enabled for all radios on the router.
WMM prioritizes WiFi data packets from different applications based on four access
categories: voice, video, best effort, and background. For an application to receive the
benefits of WMM, WMM must be enabled for both the application and the client running
that application. Legacy applications that do not support WMM and applications that
do not require WMM are assigned to the best effort category, which receives a lower
priority than voice and video.
For each 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radio individually, you can enable or disable WMM, which
then applies too all WiFi networks that use the radio.
