CWDP: Certified Wireless Design Professional v303 — Question 8

In a convention center, you have received complaints about the WLAN infrastructure. At this moment, the are only two APs in one auditorium. After analyzing the situation, you determined that there are more client devices that the infrastructure was designed for. There are only two APs to support more than 300 devices using the Wi-Fi at the same time. What should you do to make the Wi-Fi work as expected?

Answer options

• A. Redesign the entire WLAN
• B. Quickly add more APs
• C. Upgrade the Ethernet connections to MultiGig
• D. Turn up the output power on the APs so that they can handle more clients

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as a redesign of the WLAN is necessary to accommodate the high number of client devices effectively. Simply adding more APs (B) might not solve underlying issues, upgrading Ethernet (C) doesn't directly address AP capacity, and increasing output power (D) could lead to interference and does not guarantee better performance with so many clients.
