You work as a Help Desk Technician for uCertify Inc. Your work is to provide technical assistance to users on the phone. Mark, a user, reports that he is facing some difficulties in staying connected to his office wireless network with his laptop. His computer reports that the wireless signal is very low. Which of the following will you tell Mark to do to improve the weak signal strength and stability?Each correct answer represents a complete solution. Choose two. This task contains the radio buttons and checkboxes for options. The shortcut keys to perform this task are A to H and alt+1 to alt+9.

A Adjust the antenna on the wireless PC card.

B Reboot the wireless router.

C Change the SSID of the laptop.

D Change the location to get closer to the wireless access point (WAP).

Shutting down the router and powering it back on is called reboot. Reboot will not give you permanent fast speed but can improve it a bit. Like a computer, router is a hardware within which runs a software. And some times software could not communicate with the hardware which affects it performance. So, if you experience slow internet speed, you can reboot your router.

But, this procedure will not improve your overall internet speed which depends upon the bandwidth provided by your internet service provider(ISP). You can upgrade your current package to improve the speed.

- Change the location to get closer to the WAP

A Wi-Fi router sends data through air in the form of radio waves. Just like your voice, which travels through air, is affected by obstructing objects and your distance from the listener, same is the case with Wi-Fi signals. Farther the Wi-Fi router, weaker the signals. A rule of thumb is that if you double the distance between the router and client, throughput decreases by one-third of its original strength.
