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!

This course was more intensive than the first one, but felt a little more hands-on. I am excited to see how the next course goes. I do feel I learned quite a bit in this course and it was challenging.

I enjoyed leaning about how data flows from one computer to another, even over a router to a different network. The instructor of this course is very good and presents the content well.

The best course could be for the subject. Course divided into small small topics with quizzes and make it easier for a student to learn. I would always recommend courses from coursera.

I give the instructor a thumbs up. He's calm while delivering content and also makes a joke or two to keep the course lively. The course is easy to follow up with and to understand.

Very informative. A lot of information! The course goes in depth about computer networks and how they work and came to be. Great examples and explanations as to why we use what we use.

Amazing course. Definitely don't see ethernet cords, and computer the same after this course. So much to learn and so much more to come with IPv6 slowly becoming more, and more common.

This course was very informative. I learned so much about the intricacies of how the internet work, how networks communicate over long distances and how complicated it all actually is.

I really liked the course and I learn a lot about network and the mysterious world behind it. Now, it is not mysterious anymore! It is science and knowledge that makes up the network!

The lessons are very informative, and the quizzes are just hard enough that they require you to have a solid grasp of all pertinent information. The teacher is awesome and very funny.

This was very difficult for me personally. The information is very dense and hard to grasp for me without having real examples. I would say just study it a bunch and you will get it!

A rather technical course, compared to the previous one in this specialization, but a good, and important one nonetheless. Victor's cheerfulness also adds to the course enjoyability!

This course teaches you A LOT about computer networking and is very beneficial to someone with an IT career. It's probably the most in-depth course of the Google certificate program.
