NOTE: To achieve transfer rates greater than 54 Mbps on 802.11n
connections, WPA2*-AES security must be selected. No security (None)
can be selected to enable network setup and troubleshooting.
An administrator can enable or disable support for high throughput mode to
reduce power-consumption or conflicts with other bands or compatibility
issues.

802.11b/g
Select Enabled or Disabled.
Ad Hoc QoS
Mode
Quality of Service (QoS) control in ad hoc networks. QoS provides
prioritization of traffic from the access point over a wireless LAN based on
traffic classification. WMM (Wi-Fi Multimedia) is the QoS certification of
the Wi-Fi Alliance (WFA). When WMM is enabled, the WiFi adapter uses
WMM to support priority tagging and queuing capabilities for Wi-Fi
networks.
WMM Enabled (Default)
WMM Disabled
Bluetooth® AMP
Enable or disable Bluetooth® AMP. AMP stands for alternate MAC/PHY
and uses the 802.11 (Wi-Fi) as the highspeed tranport. If disabled, Bluetooth
HS is turned off.
HT Mode/VHT
Mode/Disabled
This settings lets you select HT Mode (High Throughput mode), VHT Mode
(Very High Throughput Mode) or to disable both modes. HT Mode supports
802.11n compatiblity, whereas VHT Mode supports 802.11ac compatiblity.
Fat Channel
Intolerant
This setting communicates to access points that this WiFi adapter does not
prefer 40MHz channels in the 2.4GHz band. The default setting is for this to
be turned off (disabled), so that the adapter does not send this notification. If
the access point continues to use 40MHz channels, the WiFi adapter will
also use 40MHz channels if the 802.11n Channel Width (2.4GHz) setting is
AUTO.
NOTE: This setting does not apply to the following adapters:
Intel® Wireless WiFi Link 4965AG_
Intel® PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection
Mixed mode
