Challenging but doable. I had to watch some videos several times and do some reading of my own before I could fully understand certain concepts, but it was really worth it.

Pay special attention to the Transport layer content!

One suggestion to improve upon the abstraction of learning about the ethernet frames & ip datagrams would be to show a specific example of how these protocols would physically look like while troubleshooting out in the field.

a pesar que ya se sobre esto (algo avanzado) siempre se verán temas que uno no había visto, cosas mínimas puede ser. Este es un gran curso aunque hubiese preferido que fuese mas especifico en el área de redes y conectividad.

Very informational, make sure to take notes. I am usually not a note taker but I used them to refer back to during tests. Make sure to do the supplemental readings. The tests ask questions based on them more than the videos.

This course is a very good one to reach some entry-level about Networking and how the computer communicates between small or big networks and how some network devices interact and communicate with each other similar devices.

Very excellent way to learn about the fundamentals of networks and they data is passed along. Just wish there were examples of what problems may arise from corrupted packets or how to detect and diagnose the network traffic.

It was a great course, the only thing that would help would be if the questions on the test matched what you learned. I felt like there were some trick questions that I didn't understand. All in all I enjoyed this course.

Muito bom o curso me consolidou varias conceitos que já havia aprendido na faculdade, um pouco mais complexo que o primeiro curso do programa, porém é super importante conhecermos os fundamentos da rede e como ela funciona.

The content in this course was terrific in detailing the information with regards to how data sent across networks. I would have liked a bit more trouble shooting course work or assignments to really test our new knowledge.

This is a great course that really broke things down in a way that was very helpful for me to understand in a more detailed way. I really appreciate those details and just the overall thoroughness of this class. Thank you!

Excellent, well structured introduction into networks. As an experienced business analist, there was still a lot to learn - well suited to create a spill over effect once you move along the ladder towards IT architecture.

This is an amazing course. I am in the Google Certifcate program, and while Networking has not been my strongest, or favorite portion. I am excited that I now have a little more knowledge about the "magic" of my network.
