b. When the end-user device will run an application that requires a dedicated connection to the network
c. When the end-user device only has a WLAN NIC
d. When the end-user device will run an application that is delay tolerant
Option (b) When the end-user device will run an application that requires a dedicated connection to the network
Explanation:
Option (b) is the correct option.
When the user device requires a highly dedicated network environment to itself to run a web application that requires large download and upload speeds, bandwidth requirements then it prefers a wired connection than a wireless connection.
