To ensure there is sufficient capacity, you want to maximize the available network bandwidth. What should you do?

Implement antenna diversity.

Your wireless network consists of multiple 802.11n access points that are configured as follows: SSID (hidden): CorpNet Security: WPA2-PSK using AES Frequency: 5.75 GHz Bandwidth per channel: 40 MHz Because of the unique construction of your organization's facility, there are many locations that do not have a clear line of sight between network clients and access points. As a result, radio signals are reflected along multiple paths before finally being received. The result is distorted signals that interfere with each other. What should you do?
