Correct: C As a general wireless networking rule, each wireless hop in a mesh network reduces the throughput of the link in half. As a result, wireless mesh networking may not be the most viable solution for environments that are required to support high-bandwidth or latency-intolerant applications. Meraki recommends limiting the amount of wireless hops to one (1) unless more are absolutely necessary to serve additional wireless clients.

Adding comment: Maximizing Throughput Meraki recommends that the end user is located no more than 3 hops away from the gateway. Each hop will reduce the bandwidth by 50%. For example, a 6 Mbps connection to a gateway will reduce to 3 Mbps at the second hop and 1.5 Mbps at the third hop.

Selected Answer: C

There will be a throughput reduction (~50% reduction) with each “hop” in a mesh. It is recommended that a mesh network be designed for no more than one mesh hop from the gateway to client device. https://documentation.meraki.com/MR/Deployment_Guides/Mesh_Deployment_Guide
