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!

Great overview of the technical aspects of networking that, once again, started from the very "I know nothing basics" and moved to more advanced topics at a rate that this beginner could keep up with.

Definitely a review challenge, but covers a deep understanding of Networking from hardware usage to cloud computing. I do hope Weeks 4-6 can be expanded on more for future review.
