Hmm, I would double check that. It might be renamed something by their firmware but I've never seen an AP that didn't have that option. It's a low level hardware setting that is present in everything.
Or you might be able to flash them with a 3rd party firmware that does expose it like OpenWRT.

@stephenw10 to be honest I'm not sure I will look through it again and look at the manual that was given as well.

What APs are they specifically?
-
@stephenw10 I didn’t buy them. They was giving to me by a friend of mine. They look like they have custom firmware on them. I looked them up and found them on made in china website. link text

So actually Comfast CF-EW71 devices?
Looks like they have some central management. Do you have that?
If those are v2 hardware it looks like OpenWRT recently added support.

May I suggest a Mikrotik AP device!

@stephenw10 I have saw that controller itself can do pfsense. Because it is basically a computer/router. And I saw it can do that.

pfSense is based upon the 'less known' FreeBSD OS (that not MAC OS, neither Windows, neither Linux based).
Normally, a firewall router should stay a firewall router and should (edit) not host a game server, file sever, camera server and so on. "For security reasons".Remember : the less tricks, tools, gadgets, stuff you use, the easier it is to maintain the system up and running => Keep It Simple. This will also help you keeping the costs down.

and should host also a a game server
did you mean to write: " and should <not> host also a a game server..."?
-
euh, yeah right, corrected, thanks.

So, to be clear, you don't have the central controller for these APs? You only have the options available in the APs directly?
