So this 

Basic EHT-MCS And Nss Set: 0x44444444

Should be 0x11111111 ? and it defines the minimum number of streams needed to connect?

This the defines the max streams ?

            Supported EHT-MCS and NSS Set
                EHT-MCS Map (BW <= 80MHz): 0x444444
                    .... .... .... .... .... 0100 = Rx Max Nss That Supports EHT-MCS 0-9: 4
                    .... .... .... .... 0100 .... = Tx Max Nss That Supports EHT-MCS 0-9: 4
                    .... .... .... 0100 .... .... = Rx Max Nss That Supports EHT-MCS 10-11: 4
                    .... .... 0100 .... .... .... = Tx Max Nss That Supports EHT-MCS 10-11: 4
                    .... 0100 .... .... .... .... = Rx Max Nss That Supports EHT-MCS 12-13: 4
                    0100 .... .... .... .... .... = Tx Max Nss That Supports EHT-MCS 12-13: 4
