HELP! WAX630 QoS Settings is greyed out.

Firmware V10.8.11.4. I don't know if it's the firmware or if I'm doing something incorrect but it's not accessible as it doesn't give me the option to disable "WMM Powersave" in the WAX630 web interface. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. I've called in and the tech teams are supposed to call me back as well.

    What issue you intend mitigating from by disabling WMM Power Save?

     

    WMM Power Save deploys mechanisms from 802.11e and legacy 802.11,to save power (for battery powered equipment) and fine-tune power consumption.

      The smart Amazon basic light bulbs are disconnecting. Previously I had the option to disable WMM Power Save which caused the light bulbs not to disconnect. The smart Amazon basic light bulbs all do not disconnect but some randomly disconnect because of the WMM Power Save.

    Pramendra and hnagaraju please, I neither don't know how to adjust the WMM controls in insight, nor do I have an idea why WMM controls are disarmed on the local Web UI (assuming the device is not in insight mode).

        I opened up previously a support ticket to these issues as well.
