Question:

All client computers on your network use 802.11ac. Several users recently migrated from one office space to another, increasing the number of users in the neighborhood from 20 to around 50. Both new and old users are now reporting extremely poor network transfer speeds. What is the MOST LIKELY source of the problem?

A There are too many users for one wireless access point.
explanation

Users are connecting; it's simply taking longer than it should. This is most likely due to too many users using the WAP at the same time. Even if the WAP hasn't reached the theoretical limit that the manufacturer claims it should support, the more devices connected, the more probable their signals may conflict with each other. Install a second WAP to fix this issue.
