Your wireless network consists of multiple 802.11n access points that are configured as follows: SSID (hidden): CorpNet Security: WPA2-PSK using AES Frequency: 5.7 GHz Bandwidth per channel: 20 MHz This network is required to support an ever-increasing number of devices. To ensure there is sufficient capacity, you want to maximize the available network bandwidth. What should you do

Answer:

double the bandwidth assigned per channel to 40 MHz

Step-by-step explanation:

The best way of doing this would be to double the bandwidth assigned per channel to 40 MHz. This will make sure that the capacity is more than sufficient. This is simply because the bandwidth of a channel represents how much information can pass through the channel at any given second, the larger the channel, the more information/data that can pass at the same time. Therefore, if 20 MHz is enough for the network, then doubling this bandwidth channel size would be more than sufficient capacity for the network to handle all of the data.
