What factor could affect the performance of a network?
A
Too little users using the same network at the same time
B
Too many people using other networks at the same time
C
Too many users using the same network at the same time
D
People using two computers on the same network
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The performance of a network can be affected by various factors: the number of devices on the network. the bandwidth of the transmission medium. the type of network traffic.

Detailed explanation-2: -The number of users or devices on a network can affect the performance on a network, as the available bandwidth will be shared amongst different users. The more users, the more divided the available bandwidth would be.

Detailed explanation-3: -When multiple devices use the same network, overcrowding occurs as they all compete with each other to connect to the same router. This means low quality or buffering during streaming, latency during gaming, and frustratingly slow browsing speeds.

Detailed explanation-4: -Packet loss, latency, and jitter are all related to slow throughput speed. Latency is the amount of time it takes for a packet to make it from source to destination, and jitter refers to the difference in packet delay. Minimizing all these factors is critical to increasing throughput speed and data performance.

Detailed explanation-5: -Speed Mismatch. This occurs when multiple users try to make use of the same server. Old Equipment. Malware. Imperfect Design. Misuse of Data Package. Malfunctioning Equipment. Poor Cable Choice. Junk Software. More items •28-Oct-2016
