The key words here are "FIRST" and "multilevel". It only takes a minute to check the channel utilization so that makes sense to do this first in case there's channel issues. Since it's a multilevel building, APs below and above could be using the same channel, causing latency and drops. Performing a site survey takes a long time to complete so even though it's a valid option, it's not logical to do that first given the other options.

1. **Perform a site survey**: Assess coverage, signal strength, and interference sources. 2. **Review AP placement**: Ensure strategic placement for optimal coverage. 3. **Monitor channel utilization**: Identify and adjust overcrowded channels. 4. **Check firmware updates**: Install the latest updates for APs and devices. 5. **Inspect physical connections**: Ensure cables are properly connected and not damaged. 6. **Test cable attenuation**: Use a tester to check for signal loss. 7. **Check for interference**: Identify and eliminate sources of interference. 8. **Review network configuration**: Check for errors or misconfigurations. 9. **Consider network load**: Ensure the network can handle the load. 10. **Test with different devices**: Determine if the issue is device-specific.

According to both Chatgpt4 and Copilot the answer is A.

WiFi network has already been deployed, which means the site survey has already been done. Latency and drops in coverage could be due to congested channels. C should be the correct answer.

A is the one that should give you a complete view of the problem. You are getting multiple users reporting issues across a NEW multi floor building. You first need to establish the scope of the outage. While it is more efficient to do some of the other things first, establishing a scope of the issues and a clear view of the entire picture starts with a site survey. You could go look at the AP placements and view areas lacking that way, you could check the channel utilization for interference, but realistically you are wanting to get a view of the whole picture of what the problem is.

Site Survey helps you find out the problem.

First thing to do is to perfom a site survey, dont take it as practical, theories it guys so that you can get correct answer.

A site survey is a crucial step in troubleshooting Wi-Fi network issues, especially in a new, multilevel building. It involves assessing the physical layout of the building, identifying potential signal obstructions, and determining the optimal placement of access points (APs) to ensure adequate coverage and minimize interference.

A. Perform a site survey. Performing a site survey is the first step to troubleshoot Wi-Fi issues in a new deployment. A site survey helps assess the physical environment, identify potential sources of interference, and determine optimal placement for access points (APs). It provides valuable information about signal strength, coverage areas, and potential obstacles.

If you're network was recently deployed, you would have already performed a site survey . Site survey is used to show coverage by signal strength & possible interferences to measure the RSSI & not bandwidth. AP placement can be reviewed by the site survey. Channel utilization measures the packets that are transmitted through the transmission medium over time.

is A yall over thinking, if some added somthing new to the area that is messing with you stuff then you need to see what it is not check your own self because you know that probles didnt happen until someone added some new stuff,

A. Perform a site survey. The FIRST step to troubleshoot Wi-Fi network issues in a new multilevel building should be to perform a site survey. A site survey is essential to assess the wireless environment, identify any sources of interference, and understand the signal propagation characteristics throughout the building. It helps you determine the optimal placement of access points (APs), choose the appropriate channels, and plan for the right amount of coverage and capacity. The other options (B, C, and D) are important steps in troubleshooting Wi-Fi issues but should come after conducting a site survey. Reviewing AP placement (option B), monitoring channel utilization (option C), and testing cable attenuation (option D) are actions you would take once you have a better understanding of the site's wireless characteristics and have identified potential issues during the site survey.

A. Perform a site survey. A site survey involves physically inspecting the environment, measuring signal strength, identifying interference sources, and assessing the overall wireless landscape. This helps in determining the actual coverage, potential interference, and optimal placement of access points (APs). Without a proper understanding of the environment, it's challenging to address issues like latency and coverage drops effectively. Once you have the results from the site survey, you can then proceed to other steps such as reviewing AP placement (B), monitoring channel utilization (C), and testing cable attenuation (D) as needed.

This is a bad question. I hate it. id still probably go with A even though it isnt what most people would do in real life, since its time consuming.

A site survey is typically conducted before deploying a wireless network. A site survey is a process of analyzing the layout, signal strength, and environment of a wireless network. Answer is C

A, because you are surveying the new site. key words

When troubleshooting Wi-Fi network issues, the first step is typically to perform a site survey. A site survey is a process of assessing the wireless environment to determine the signal strength, coverage, and interference levels. By performing a site survey, the administrator can identify any areas where signal strength is weak, interference is high, or coverage is incomplete.
