• Apply working knowledge of POTS, fax, and analog telecommunications services when supporting legacy or site-specific requirements.

Troubleshooting & Service Partnership

• Serve as the primary escalation resource for wired, wireless, VPN, circuit, and end-user connectivity issues.
• Troubleshoot systematically through the OSI model, including endpoint configuration, physical connectivity, switching, routing, DNS, DHCP, authentication, and application reachability.
