A new company recently moved into an empty office space. Within days, users in the next office began noticing increased latency and packet drops with their Wi-Fi-connected devices. Which of the following is the MOST likely reason for this issue?
A. A new company moved in. So the resources from the other office is not being used and shouldn't have any congestion. Whether it be WiFi or wired, it shouldn't cause congestion in the network since it's a different company. It doesn't say they're sharing network.
Network congestion would be if they were all on the same network, from the question I’m coming to the conclusion these are two different offices with two different WiFi connections. The new office’s channel is overlapping with the preexisting office, causing them to have issues.
If the answer is channel overlap, wouldn't both companies experience problems? Its not like one channel eats the other, they are the same and conflict with each other unless I'm missing something. The question also forces you to assume infrastructure was added to the equation. Bad question.
Network congestion would affect wired network connections as well, not just Wi-Fi-connected devices. The fact that the users in the next office only experienced increased latency and packet drops with their Wi-Fi-connected devices, and not with wired connections, suggests that the issue is specific to the Wi-Fi network.
Network congestion can manifest in various symptoms, including:
Slow data transfer: Files or data taking longer than usual to upload or download.
Increased latency: Delays in data transmission resulting in higher response times.
Packet loss: Data packets failing to reach their destination due to network congestion, resulting in dropped packets.
It is most likely the new company that moved in has channels set to similar frequencies which will cause overlapping. Network congestion would be an occurrence within a single network's devices.
It is an evil worded question. A new office moved next door, but they are not facing the issue. The issue is faced by the office next door. I did not see that for a long time.
So, it is definitely channel overlap
It never said the new company set up their own wireless network. If it's not in the question, I try not to assume that it will be a part of the answer when it comes to CompTIA.
Since the question specifies that users "with their Wi-Fi connected devices" experience increased latency and packet drops, it indicates about channel overlapping.
E.
Empty office gets filled with new people for using wifi, other office is now experiencing slowdowns.
