This was really time-consuming but it was really worth learning. Although in the end, it seems to be very basic things, they would be essential through whatever you want to accomplish in the IT field.

This course was amazing and helped me understand so much more about networking, things I never thought I would know or understand. Very fulfilling and I can't wait to use this knowledge going forward.

Heck of a challenge. I almost wish there were an easier way to describe the five layer model, as that took the longest time to wrap my head around.

A great course to learn the basics of networking. Now couple this with some hands on practice. Get a small switch, two computers and network them.

In-depth and easy to understand, the course took you on a step by step journey in on how data is transmitted from client to server and vice versa.

Can't still understand how I learned so much with just a "computer based, online community video training". I guess the resources behind scenes...
