CCNA: Cisco Certified Network Associate — Question 918

What occurs when overlapping Wi-Fi channels are implemented?

Answer options

• A. Users experience poor wireless network performance.
• B. Wireless devices are unable to distinguish between different SSIDs.
• C. The wireless network becomes vulnerable to unauthorized access.
• D. Network communications are open to eavesdropping.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

When overlapping Wi-Fi channels are utilized, it can lead to interference, causing users to experience degraded wireless network performance. The other options do not relate directly to the use of overlapping channels; they address issues like SSID recognition, unauthorized access, and eavesdropping, which are not directly caused by overlapping channels.
