A lot of information, but i feel like i fully understand core networking concepts. A lot of this info has helped me comprehend what will be required for me when I take my Network + certification exam.

I loved this course. When I had issues support was awesome sauce. I really enjoyed the puns this instructor used to keep you from going off in a daze. I really wish I would have found Coursera sooner.

Very informative and fun to take, but has a level of difficulty too. A hundred pages of notes in, and here I go to Course 3. Thank you :)

This is good course.

Logical block exercises are very good for learning in my opinion. Courses need to use more of this kind of exercises.

This gave a really good intro to networking. It also dove more in-depth but not so much that someone new to the subject couldn't follow.
