Apply yourself to these terms and concepts and you will gain knowledge that is presented in a very understandable way. Watch and rewatch the course videos and I promise it will all start making sense!

Instructor was good at making things interesting while explaining things pretty well. I would say that Subnets was pretty weirdly explained but everything else was pretty good.

Takes a course like Networking which I struggled when I originally took the course many years ago, and made it easier to understand. Was very straight forward and to the point.

This module has been challenging for me. Networking is definitely not my strongest suit. A lot of information to learn especially about how data travels throughout the layers.
