A clerk at the far end of a metal-walled records vault cannot discover the floor SSID that others see near the AP. Which fault class best fits?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Metal vault, far from the AP, SSID never shows up—that is an RF coverage problem, not a password typo. Walls and distance eat the signal before association ever starts.
Full Explanation
When a client cannot discover an SSID in a location with distance and metal attenuation while others near the AP succeed, the problem is typically RF coverage or path loss. Passphrase, EAP, or driver checks matter after a usable signal exists; here the technician should treat it as an RF connectivity issue.
