Customer Reviews

Bottom Line: I strongly recommend this book as a study guide

I love the book. I used it to review my knowledge on networking before taking the test. This book is not for the paper network techs, Comp-TIA wants you to have some network experience before taking the test, and it will help you with a basic review of basic networking knowledge. The writing is very humorous. You can tell that the author has a lot of networking experience under his belt. I really liked the pamphlet that you can tear out and carry with you. I give it five stars. The CD could be better. The contents make up for the CD. Look, as all us network people know, no network runs perfect, unless you're a vendor. It is same to say that no book is editor perfect either. If we have time to nitpick a computer book, our network would never run correctly.My advice is this: If you are a paper network person, don't get the book some parts will shoot over your head. If you are an experienced network person, use some of your experience and this book to past the exam. If you have time to nitpick a computer book, better check on your network because you have just too much time on your hands.Good Luck!

Great Book, Bad CD!

This book was a great test prep. I am A+ certified and now Network+ certified. I have had minimal networking experience. It was organized very well and covered the important things that were on the exam. The CD, however, is horrible. In fact I would recommend burning the CD or using it as a xmas tree ornament. I almost had a heart attack when I began to use the CD the day before the test. The CD asks questions about stuff that is never covered in the book or on the test for that matter. Obviously the CD was created seperately from the book. I recommend using the Exam Cram Practice Tests book in conjunction with this book b/c the questions in there are more like the ones on the exam.

Ordered book Thursday, arrived Monday, read Tuesday, passed test Wednesday. Previous experience - Mac Tech, moderate Linux exposure, a little Win95/8, almost no NT. Novell as client only.

Terrific Book

Mr. Feldman did an excellent job of writing this study guide. It's concise and to the point, but at the same time, it has plenty of very good information. It's written so that a beginner can understand the material, but it doesn't insult networking professionals who have much more in-depth knowledge. It covers the topics tested by Comp-TIA very well, and does so in a way that is rarely seen in technical books. The material covered can be exceedingly dry and boring, but Mr. Feldman's style is easy to read and humorous. I did find a few technical errors, but they were all fairly minor.As a Novell Master CNI (Instructor), I strongly recomend this book to all of my students. Some of my students have found this book to be the difference between passing and failing the Network Pluse exam, as the materials provided by MS in the Networking Essentials course or Novell in the Networking Technologies or the new Network Plus exam can be very daunting (with far too much detail) for people with little experience.All in all, I have found this book to be an excellent resource.

Network+ Certifiation Preparation

Network+ Exam Guide was written in an interesting format to keep your attention. It is complete and very easy to understand. All you need is intermediate knowledge of networking and this book will take all the way through your certification process. It was written for the professional who understands the concepts and not only extends your knowledge to enable you to pass your exams but it is also a great reference book for troubleshooting.
