Great course. It is great for beginners and for people that may have forgotten a thing or two. The way it was taught makes it so much better than reading man pages or something else as dry and boring.

The course had some ups and downs, but it was a good challenge and I did it! I learned so much and I never knew I could do this kind of course. I have gained so much knowledge now from when I started.

A lot of information but good information. The 8+ minute videos got a little long. Maybe it would be better if it were cut down into smaller segments. What I found of interest was the information on IPv6 because that is the future of the internet.

The only thing I don't like is that some of the exams are in Greek. Which is annoying when I am on a roll then have to stop and complain. I clearly states I am an English speaker, so I don't know. Then there's the thing about having it corrected.

This is still a warm up and gives you lots of knowledge. Hit the vocabulary as much as you can. They don't often repeat what the string of letters stands for. You might even want to skip ahead to the vocab in every section or in the last lesson.

Overall, the course is very thorough and the videos make it a bit easier to understand. There are many difficult challenges to overcome, however, rewatching the content a few times will help retain and understand the information that is taught.

This course is one of the fantastic course that I ever participated via online mode. I admit that, this course is many times better in terms of content, practical approach and hands on training with other competitive online training platforms.

It was a phenomenal introductory course. It's not something that'll make you a networking guru, but as I said...its an introductory course. You'll get ample understanding about the underlying internet infrastructure that us humans have built.

Very good course for beginners to learn about networking and how the internet works. Be prepared for a lot of technical terms to be passed out, and read or research each term for a better understanding of the subjects you would need to know.

This one was harder than the first session but I was able to get through it. I feel like I need a bit more practice. If we can start getting like more practice questions and models to reinforce more. As long as you focus you should do fine.

Great job on the course, I would shorten it a little bit since it's a bunch of information.

Some of the things learned aren't really needed for the day to day job but good to know.

Thanks for the dedication and hard work creating this course.
