This course answered many question I always wanted to find answers for related to networks. If you want to understand eveything about networking in the lowest level, then this course will help you a lot.

It was fine as an overview, but would be difficult to pass any kind of rigorous test with just that. You will need to study much more outside of the class to understand networking in-depth, as I plan to.

I definitely enjoyed the more technical side of all of this. I didn't understand at first but by doing my own research and re-watching the videos, I have a solid grasp of the more complicated topics now.

Fantastic course, finally dove deep enough to explain concepts I've only superficially understood for years, despite the college classes and even more focused certifications in networking I already have.

I've taken a handfull of networking courses over the years, but I've not encountered one that went as in-depth as this! If you want to learn networking, you can't get much more comprehensive than this!

Fantastic course. Even as someone with some networking knowledge, a lot to learn. Felt easy to understand while also pushing me to understand how to explain it to those with less technical knowledge. =

Will need to review again, but I absolutely loved how thorough the course is. I do wish there was a more interactive course to see the progress of learning within the big picture every step of the way.

Incredibly valuable course and an IT professional to really understand how networks work. I've heard many of the terms before, but didn't quite understand how everything fit together until this course.
