What should the technician check as the first step in troubleshooting the issue?

The trunks between switches in the wiring closet

the cable that connects the PC of the caller to the network jack

the cable connection between a PC and a network outlet that is used by a neighbor

the power outlet to the PC that is used by the caller

the status of the departmental workgroup switch in the wiring closet
