With the Ubiquiti WAP's, I have the ability to create user groups that can restrict bandwidth. I can then assign a user to one of those groups. For instance, if someone is hogging up bandwidth, I can limit them to 5 Mbps downstream and 1 Mbps upstream instead of the default 250 down/30 up.
Is there a way to do this with the WAP371 series?
