CompTIA Network+ (N10-007) — Question 250

A network technician is assisting a SOHO environment with wireless connection issues. The business uses 802.11n and WPA2 encryption. The on-premises equipment is located toward the back of the building and includes a router, firewall, and WAP. The users at the front of the building are experiencing very slow response times due to distance limitations. Which of the following should be done to remediate the slow speeds of the users?

Answer options

• A. Configure MIMO.
• B. Remove the channel overlap.
• C. Add another AP.
• D. Adjust the security type.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Adding another AP will extend the wireless coverage, allowing users at the front of the building to receive a stronger signal and improved speeds. Configuring MIMO and removing channel overlap may help in optimizing the existing connection, but they won't address the primary issue of distance. Adjusting the security type is unrelated to the speed issues experienced by the users.
