Definitely need at least 4 for smooth streaming!

Wait, are we sure about the split? Sounds off.

3 seems too low for that many users.

Nah, I’d go with 5 just to be safe.

I think 4 APs should cover it.

I’m a bit confused about the split and how that affects the total. I might be leaning towards option C, but I’m not entirely confident.

I feel like the 2.4 GHz band has a lower capacity, so maybe we need more APs than I initially thought.
GE

I think we did a practice question similar to this one, and I want to say it was around 4 APs needed for a similar number of users.

I remember we discussed the capacity of APs in class, but I'm not sure how to calculate it for this specific split.
DE

This looks straightforward. I'll just need to do some quick math to determine the number of clients on each band and then choose the appropriate answer.
EL

I think I've got this. The key is to consider the client distribution across the two frequency bands and then round up to the nearest whole number of APs needed.

Wait, how do I figure out the number of APs needed based on the client count? I'm a bit confused on the approach here.

Hmm, this seems straightforward. I'll need to calculate the number of clients on each frequency band and then determine the appropriate number of APs.

Okay, let's see. 30% of 100 clients on 2.4 GHz, and 70% on 5 GHz. That's a good starting point.

Okay, I've got this. I know the valid device types are Pipe and Character, so I'll select those.

I've got a strategy - I'll eliminate the options that don't seem to match the requirements, then evaluate the remaining ones more closely. Gotta be methodical on these exam questions.

This question is a piece of cake! Just divide the number of clients by the maximum number of clients per AP and round up. Easy peasy!
SH

Actually, it should be 100 divided by 30, which is about 3.33, so we round up to 4 APs
AS

So 100 divided by 30 is roughly 3.33, which we round up to 4
RO

I agree, we just need to divide 100 by the maximum number of clients per AP

I think the answer is B) 3
LO

I'm with Shawna on this one. The question is specifically asking about the number of APs needed based on the client count, so I think the answer has to be D) 5.
BR

I'm with Shawna on this one, the answer has to be D) 5.

Hmm, I'm not so sure about that. Wouldn't it be more efficient to use fewer, more powerful APs to cover the area instead of having a ton of them? I'm going to go with C) 4 APs.
SH

Okay, let's think this through. If we have 100 concurrent users, with a 30/70 split between 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, that means we need at least 30 APs for the 2.4 GHz clients and 70 APs for the 5 GHz clients. That's a total of 100 APs, so the answer must be D) 5.
DO
Donette

Yes, having 5 APs would provide the necessary coverage for all the streaming users.
DE
Dell

That makes sense, we need to ensure there are enough APs to handle the split between 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz clients.
HO
Honey

I think the answer is D) 5 because we need 100 APs in total for 100 concurrent users.
DE
Delila

I'm not sure, but I think we might need 5 APs to handle the load.

I agree with Linn, 4 APs sounds about right for 100 users streaming video.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. I think the number of APs needed would depend on the coverage area and signal strength, not just the client count.
