Mark is in charge of the network support team in his organization. Currently the wireless network is experiencing interference issues from a nearby wireless network using different SSIDs but operating on the same channel. What should he do to solve this problem?
  1. Change the LAN WAP channel to a unique one.
  2. Change the LAN WAP to the same SSID as the foreign WAP.
  3. Change the WEP settings on the LAN.
  4. Change the LAN WAP settings to be different than that of the foreign WAP.
Explanation
Answer: A - To avoid interference issues between different SSIDs operating on the same channel, change the channel to a unique one.

Key Takeaway: The interference is a result of the proximity of the foreign wireless LANs. Because they are using the same channel, the wireless LANs interfere with each other’s signals. The interference can be reduced by changing the channel used by the WLAN under consideration.
