Channel widths? Are you kidding me? With that level of neglect, I'd be more worried about whether the APs are still even broadcasting on the right planet!

Hmm, firmware revision, eh? Well, I guess the IT team there has been asleep at the wheel for the past 18 months. Sounds like they need to start by updating their coffee machine before they tackle the wireless network!

The VLANs in use, hands down. Those unmanaged APs could be connected to all sorts of random VLANs, possibly even giving unauthorized users access to sensitive areas of the network. Gotta lock that down ASAP.

True, but we should also look at the channels in use to avoid interference and optimize performance.

I think checking the firmware revision is also important to ensure any known vulnerabilities are patched.

Definitely agree, VLANs are a top priority for security.

I'd go with the channels in use. Rogue APs and interference can be a real problem, so I'd want to do a full spectrum analysis and see what's going on across the wireless environment.

Definitely the firmware revision! With those APs left unmanaged for so long, they're probably running outdated firmware full of security vulnerabilities. Better check that first before anything else.
