FlexMaster 9.10 - Network Capcity vs. Client Tx/Rx

Question

Does anyone know what the difference between these two reports is under Reports>Capacity?

I thought they should add up to be the same but they do not so perhaps i miss the context of each one.

Thanks.

Network capacity seems to be a more theoretical number, more like a sum of Client TX / RX + the unoccupied airtime counting as if an ideal max rate client is using it.

For example, if you only have one weak client connected that's using 50% of airtime transmitting at 25mbit, that would be the Client Tx/Rx value, but there'd be an additional 50% of "capacity" * (450mbit for N, 866 or 1300 mbit for AC) available on the channel.
