CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1001) — Question 237

A technician receives a cellular call from a manager. The technician is instructed to download a service manual directly from the Internet to a laptop. However, there is no WiFi signal or wired Ethernet. Which of the following would be the MOST appropriate connections for the technician to use?

Answer options

• A. Hotspot
• B. NFC
• C. Bluetooth
• D. VPN

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Using a Hotspot is the most suitable option as it allows the technician to share their cellular data connection with the laptop to access the Internet. NFC and Bluetooth are not designed for downloading files over the Internet, and a VPN is not a connection method but rather a secure tunnel for network traffic, which does not address the lack of connectivity.
