An evil twin in an authorized conference-room test advertises a stronger signal than the real municipal AP. What placement awareness should the assessor take away?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Move closer, shout louder on the air, and stations often follow the boombox. Evil twins win associations with placement and power as much as with a copied name. Weakest-BSSID myths, core VLAN pruning tales, and alphabetical SSID sorts are not how clients roam.
Full Explanation
Physical proximity and higher RSSI strongly influence client AP selection among identical or lookalike SSIDs. Assessors account for placement when studying evil-twin attraction. Clients do not prefer the weakest BSSID by rule, and beacon strength does not rewrite wired VLAN logic or alphabetical SSID picking.
