• Band Steering - This option allows you to enable or disable Band Steering which is
a feature that balances dual-band capable wireless clients to connect to the faster
5GHz Wi-Fi, and leave the 2.4GHz Wi-Fi less-crowded for those clients who support
2.4GHz only in order to improve the Wi-Fi performance for all the clients. When using
Band Steering you will only have one SSID ("VS20_XXXXXX") with one password to
connect to.
