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.

Overall very positive and helpful, critiques are minimal. Minor technical errors with videos and sometimes purposefully deceptive wording on exams.

It should have more practice, a lot of theory that will not be put into practice.

excellent for those who want knowledge a little beyond the basics.

Pros: a lot of knowledge in many aspects of computer networking.

Networking is hard, I had to Google a lot of information that wasn't fully explained, but that's ok. And there are a few typos in the animations.

Lot of networking information. Great Overview. Felt that some terms, maybe becuase they are new, werent' flushed out as much as they could be.

The content, for me at least, was incredibly dull and a drag to get through. However, the teacher did an incredible job of keeping me interested.

It is great course but you will need to refer to external resources to fully understand the materials. The vidoes provided is not enough at all.

Muy buen curso, pero para ser un curso de redes. Esperaba que al menos mostraran como hacer un cable de Internet, para los más novatos al menos.

the message was clear besides searching, but some quiz was tricky. Anyway, it needs more time to study for someone who is new it IT information.

Great course, it would be great if there was more practice exercise for the IPV6 compression rules, would help a lot when doing the graded exam.

Really good quizzes and learning material. However, would really help a student to be more technical when it comes to giving quiz instructions.

Pretty much took notes word for word on this, it could be a much longer in depth course.Sometimes jumps from point to point without much notice

There's a lot crammed into this one. But it is a lot of info condensed to fit the weeks of the course. Supplemental reading will be mandatory.

Subnet Masks section was unclear, and one of the final graded quiz questions about TCP connections was vaguely worded. Otherwise, good course,

so of the topic were a bit vague in the actual application of certain things but those can easily be dealt with by supplementing your learning

I do not like the idea of the GRADED PLUGIN only for use on a desktop. It's inconvenient for those who don't have one. But I enjoy the course.
