A user in a high-rise office building reports poor cellular signal on their smartphone. The office is located on a lower floor and has many concrete walls. Which factor is most likely causing the weak signal?

Building materials such as concrete and steel attenuate cellular signals

The cellular network is using unlicensed spectrum

The smartphone is using Wi-Fi instead of cellular

The office has too many Wi-Fi access points causing interference

A user in an apartment building complains that their Wi-Fi is slow, especially in the evening. Many neighboring Wi-Fi networks are visible, and they all appear to be on overlapping channels. Which action would most likely improve the user's Wi-Fi performance?

Increase the Wi-Fi transmit power to maximum

Use a wired Ethernet connection instead of Wi-Fi

Change the Wi-Fi channel to one that is less congested

Disable the 5 GHz band and use only 2.4 GHz
