HI coljediv
Fast roaming is a network level feature available during Free Trial, Navigate to Networks Tab > Wifi > Scroll down to see the Fast Roaming.
MAC ACL can be found at the Wireless SSID level, Navigate to Device (Access Point)> Wifi Networks > SSID > MAC Access Control.
Thanks,

SalauddinK Fast Roaming (RRM, based on IEEE 802.11k) is a standard feature of the WAC505/WAC510, see for example the WAC505 User Manual p.37 ff. By default it's disabled why ever - to make a product "worse" for then non-experienced user base probably.
Said that, the Netgear customers have already paid for this feature along with the device price, and can enable it - as long as the WAC are in the fully manageable local management mode. There is no reason to play a feature game here - this control must be available to everyone therefore.
