Systems and methods are provided for receiving data indicating a spatial distribution and 802.11ax capabilities of access point radios and of client devices in a network, assigning the access point radios as either first access point radios or second access point radios, the first access point radios conducting data transmission using an 802.11ax wireless standard and the second access point radios conducting data transmission using legacy wireless standards, based on the data, determining whether any of the client devices are to be steered to a different access point radio based on the 802.11ax capabilities of the client devices, and in response to determining that a client device is to be steered to a different access point radio, steering the client device to a first access point radio or a second access point radio.
