   This setting, when enabled, also automatically switches between Wi-Fi bands (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz) if a network or band congestion is detected. If you want to use this option, choose at least one of the networks you want ExpressConnect to switch to from the list of networks. ExpressConnect shows you all the networks for which you have credentials. Networks that are within range are displayed first, and networks that are not within range are hidden under Show additional networks section.

   Go to Show additonal networks to display or hide the networks for which you have credentials but are not currently in range.

   This setting enhances the performance of the prioritized applications by constantly adjusting your available bandwidth. Conference Bandwith Performance setting is disabled when you enable Optimize Network Traffic feature.
