Note: Airtime Fairness function and Bandwidth Limit function should be mutually

Band Steering detects if the wireless clients are capable of 5GHz operation, and steers them
to that frequency. It helps to leave 2.4GHz band available for legacy clients, and improves
users experience by reducing channel utilization.
If dual-band is detected, the AP will let the wireless client connect to less congested wireless
LAN, such as 5GHz to prevent from network congestion.
Note: To make Band Steering work successfully, SSID and security on 2.4GHz also
MUST be broadcasted on 5GHz.
