Explanation

Interference from other wireless devices, neighboring networks, or physical obstacles causes intermittent and inconsistent connectivity - particularly for mobile users across different locations. The fact that users are from various areas points to a widespread environmental cause rather than a device-specific or configuration issue. An SSID mismatch would prevent connection entirely, not cause intermittent issues. Encryption strength affects security, not connectivity. An incompatible NIC would only affect specific devices and would be consistent, not intermittent.
