The correct answer is B. The AP is configured with 2.4GHz frequency without band-steering capabilities. Operating in the 2.4GHz band in a high-density BYOD environment causes congestion, interference, and airtime contention due to limited non-overlapping channels and many connected devices; without band steering, devices are not encouraged to move to the less congested 5GHz band…
Question

Options
- AThe AP is configured with 2.4GHz frequency, which the new personal devices do not support.
- BThe AP is configured with 2.4GHz frequency without band-steering capabilities.
- CThe AP is configured with 5Ghz frequency with band-steering capabilities.
- DThe AP is configured with 5Ghz frequency, which the new personal devices do not support.

Explanation
Operating in the 2.4GHz band in a high-density BYOD environment causes congestion, interference, and airtime contention due to limited non-overlapping channels and many connected devices; without band steering, devices are not encouraged to move to the less congested 5GHz band, resulting in high latency and poor performance.
