A mixed 802.11n and 802.11ax client hall at the community college is dragging because slow stations dominate. Which AP feature should be enabled to protect aggregate performance?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Old slow clients and shiny ax laptops sharing a hall is a classic airtime trap. Flip on airtime fairness so the slow stations do not eat the whole medium. Hiding the SSID will not magically balance transmit time.
Full Explanation
In mixed-PHY environments, low-rate clients can consume excessive medium time. Enabling airtime fairness helps protect aggregate throughput by distributing airtime more evenly. Legacy authentication modes, SSID hiding, and disabling WMM do not address that fairness problem.
