A user experiences intermittent Wi-Fi performance issues only in their office.

The scenario states that the Wi-Fi signal is weak in the user’s office, but the laptop works perfectly in other locations. CompTIA A+ stresses that weak signal strength is caused by distance from the access point, physical obstructions, or poor AP placement. Since other users are not affected and the laptop works elsewhere, the issue is localized signal weakness.

Disabled RJ45 ports (Option C) matter only for wired connections, and the user relies on Wi-Fi. Malware (Option D) would affect performance everywhere, not just in one office. Brute-force attacks (Option B) would trigger security logs and affect multiple users.

Weak signal caused by AP distance or line-of-sight issues is the cause, as detailed in A+ wireless troubleshooting procedures related to low RSSI, interference, and AP placement.
