Why does the password need to be TotallySecret? Wouldn't it be TotallySecure!

You are right, I believe older questions (801, 901 exams) used the generic password "TotallySecret!" but have since changed slightly to be what we see now listed in the given info as "TotallySecure!"

while the answer is probably BYOD, 2.4Ghz b/G, and whatever the password they gave for it. I have a big problem. WPA is a bad encryption and should not be used. WPA2 is on the back end of its life and we should be moving on to WPA3 as the standard.

This Answer it's correct, because there are walls between the Ann's tablet and the wifi MAP, so the 2.4ghz work better than the 5ghz in long distances. And BYOD could be the correct SSID because of the tablet its a personal device and the corporate security policies for personal devices or devices who left the office, needs to be applied.

2.4 GHz realy? I dont understand why we are using 802.11b/g standard while there is 802.11ac wich can work with 2.4GHz/5Ghz as supported by the WAP AP?

Did some minor searches and it seems that, 2.4 is better in this scenario cause it penetrates walls. AC works with 5Ghz although there might be some scenarios it can use 2.4ghz but it is know for using 5ghz. It was not stated that they needed fast internet so the real question is finding what FITS or what's BEST in the scenario. Along the way COMPTIA will mold your way of thinking like this in almost every question you face.

They have been known to change the password from similar questions to throw people off, just use whatever is provided on your specific test question... don' ttry to memorize these usernames and passwords, they will throw you off if you aren't paying attention to the specifics on your particular test.
