D. D. Try to use his Simcard on a good known deviceExplanation
For Smartbro Prepaid, you need not to have a maintaining balance to connect. If you have insufficient balance, you will still be able to connect if you are still subscribed to a promo or if you still have some volume allocations (Big Bytes). Otherwise, you will be redirected to the Smartbro Dashboard. The next step should be probing and isolation.Rate this question:

Postpaid subscriber Eddieboy applied for Turbo Plan LTE full volume yesterday. Today, he complains that the device is defective and is insisting that it’d be replaced. What would be the best thing to do?

C. Create a device technical assistance SR
- C.
D. Endorse the subscriber to CRA/CMA
- D.

Correct Answer
D. A. Isolate the issue to confirm a defective deviceExplanation
After probing the issue, the best troubleshooting step to do first is to isolate the issue. The issue may not have been with the device. There are many factors which affect client satisfaction. If the subscriber still insists a replacement, be aware that replacing the device a hundred times will not resolve the case if the issue is not with the device in the first place.Rate this question:

- D.
D. “Mr. Jones, it sounds like your device may have been damaged due to wear and tear, I’ll `produce a mobile certificate right away.”
Correct Answer
C. C. “Mr. Jones, the users on your area may have increased, thus, increasing the output of our cellsites which in effect, may decrease data speeds.”Explanation
The subscriber complains that his data speeds diminished on the same area. Please note that, sim based connectivity does not diminish with having a lot of users on a single BTS, but the radius on that site will decrease. To compensate, the BTS will throttle the speed to cater all users equally based on actual usage.Rate this question:

Subscriber Jon Snow knows nothing. He wants his newly bought pocket wifi to be as secure as possible without having much hassle. What would you tell Mr. Snow?
- A.
“We can hide your Wifi broadcast and not place a password”
- B.
“We can make the password longer”
- C.
“We can place 2 passwords for added security”
- D.
“You know nothing Jon Snow”
Correct Answer
A. “We can hide your Wifi broadcast and not place a password”Explanation
The sibscriber wanted security without sacrificing convenience. Making the password longer is not convenient. Having 2 passwords is not possible. Therefore, the best answer is hiding the SSID and not placing a password. That way, the subscriber will only have to input the SSID on his devices. Plus, people will not even notice he has WiFi.

Subscriber Andrew asked regarding his iOS devices. He inquires why his iPad rings when someone calls him on his phone on his home. The Service Advisor recognizes this as:
- A.
A feature called Continuity, where calls from the iPhone can be made and received on another iOS device if they have the same AppleId and wifi network.
- B.
A feature called Keychain, where the iPhone intelligently airdrops the calls to the iPad if they are connected via Bluetooth or wifi-direct and having the same AppleId
- C.
An iCloud feature for iOS 8.3 where Facetime calls can now be answered simultaneously across all iOS devices bearing the same AppleId
- D.
It may be a defect which requires restoration.
Correct Answer
A. A feature called Continuity, where calls from the ipHone can be made and received on another iOS device if they have the same AppleId and wifi network.Explanation
iCloud Keychain keeps your Safari website usernames and passwords, credit card information, and Wi-Fi network information up to date across all of your approved devices. Facetime may be a good choice, bit it only occurs between Apple devices. Continuity links apps like phone and messaging on iOS devices together provided they are connected to the same wifi network and bears the same AppleId.Rate this question:

- B.
The iMessage may have not been deactivated from the old iPhone.
- C.
The old iPhone may need to be removed of all old user data and start anew.
- D.
The old iPhone may still have the old phone number recognized and not the new sim. The old iPhone may need to be reactivated
Correct Answer
B. The iMessage may have not been deactivated from the old ipHone.Explanation
Continuity may be the case, but according to the subscriber, it only happens on specific phone numbers and happens even if the handsets are not on the same wifi network. The correct cause of this is that the iMessage from the old phone has not been transferred to the new number, thus, the imessages sent to the old number will still be receive by the old phone.Rate this question:

- D.
