Odd web interface behavior of QoS WMM setting
I have found odd web interface behavior in changing the QoS WMM settings. In the web interface under Configuration / Wireless / QoS Settings / QoS Settings, if you try to disable "Enable Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM)" and "WMM Powersave" at the same time, only the first one is disabled, and "WMM Powersave" remains enabled and greyed out. You have to first disable "WMM Powersave", while "Enable Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM)" is enabled, click "Apply", then disable "Enable Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM)". This seems odd.
WMM power save option has the dependency on WMM and hence disabling the WMM in turn disables the WMM power save also.
That's why, WMM configurations are grayed out when WMM is disabled.
When WMM is disabled, the WMM power save configurations won't take into account and hence the changes are done in WMM Powersave along with the WMM disabling is not reflecting. Hope this helps.
Thanks,

The "WMM Powersave" does no longer work with "Enable Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM)" disabled. That's why the control is greyed - on or off is not relevant.
