Customer Reviews

Great text for future Ethernet Engineers

From a guy who has an electronics engineering degree, military aviation, and general tech savvy: I like this book a lot. We use it as our book for a "Networking Essentials" college course. Most of my classmates have prior PC network experience, and we have some novices; I think any intelligent student interested in Ethernet and other PC network issues will also like this book. Tech savvy and Ethernet is the right path!...the future looks great!

Awesome book for Network+ exam

While this book wasn't written specifically for CompTIA's Network+ exam, I found it extremely useful and informative. I have read many networking books, and this one explained the concepts very well, especially at what layers various hardware devices work. I bought it for a college networking class and kept it after the class was over because I thought it was so useful. I passed my Network+ exam a couple of weeks ago with the help of this book.

Pretty Good

At first I thought that this book sucked. But as i read on i noticed that they went at a good speed and concept wise to cover topics to real world applications. I also have the sybex books (MCSE Core classes) and i liked this networking essentials book then the sybex book. I think the sybex books were a little overwhelling with to much information. But this book gives you alot of information to get you up and running. You proably will need another supplement book just to cover some stuff that was in this one. Anyhow I guess it is not how much information you can put into a book but how you make other people understand it.
