What should you inquire about a customer's setup before conducting a site survey?

Inquiring about the anticipated number of users is crucial before conducting a site survey because it helps you understand the scale and scope of the network design needed for the installation. Knowing how many users will be accessing the network allows you to assess requirements like bandwidth, hardware specifications, and coverage areas effectively. It directly impacts decisions such as the type and number of access points, network configuration, and capacity planning, ensuring that the system can accommodate all users without performance degradation.

While considering other factors, such as the preferred installation method or the availability of tools, may prove useful during the installation process, they do not influence the fundamental planning of the network to the same extent that understanding user expectations does. Weather conditions might be a consideration for scheduling, but they are less relevant to the network capability and design assessment. Thus, focusing on the anticipated number of users is essential for creating a successful and efficient network setup.
