Band steering allows connected clients to steer from 2.4GHz to 5GHz. It is important to note that the clients must
support 5GHz in order for Band Steering to work. Band steering is a very important feature and when enabled, it
increases the throughput by reducing the contention for the busy 2.4GHz band resources. Before you enable Band
Steering, make sure that you have at least one SSID on the 2.4GHz band that has the same exact settings on the
5GHz band. If you try to enable Band Steering and you do not have matching SSIDs on both bands, you will get an
error message and the functionality will not work.
