When you enable WMM, the “Tx Burst” will be Disabled automatically by system.

Description
AC_BK
Background.
Low
High throughput. Bulk data that requires maximum throughput and is not time-
sensitive is sent to this queue (FTP data, for example).
AC_BE
Best Effort
Medium Medium throughput and delay. Most traditional IP data is sent to this queue
AC_VI
Video
High
Minimum delay. Time-sensitive video data is automatically sent to this queue
AC_VO Voice High
Time-sensitive data like VoIP and streaming media are automatically sent to this
queue
Configuring QoS options consists of setting parameters on existing queues for different types of wireless traffic.
You can configure different minimum and maximum wait times for the transmission of packets in each queue
based on the requirements of the media being sent. Queues automatically provide minimum transmission delay
for Voice, Video, multimedia, and mission critical applications, and rely on best-effort parameters for traditional IP
data.
As an Example, time-sensitive Voice & Video, and multimedia are given effectively higher priority for transmission
(lower wait times for channel access), while other applications and traditional IP data which are less time-
sensitive but often more data-intensive are expected to tolerate longer wait times.
