If an SSID is not found, what would be the primary setting that you should troubleshoot?
  1. The network card is powered on
  2. The router is not broadcasting the SSID
  3. The computer is powered off
  4. SSID is not configured properly
Explanation
Answer: B - If the SSID is not found, the first setting to check is whether the router is broadcasting the SSID.

Although there could be several reasons for a NIC not finding an SSID, the primary reason is that the router is no longer broadcasting it. Broadcasting is a setting on the router that can be turned on or off. Some administrators turn it off for security reasons.
