Net+ in 2 weeks?
I was wondering if you think it would be possible for me to pass the Net+ in two weeks? The reason is I'm looking at getting a job in Korea and want to get the test knocked out before I leave.

I am trying so hard to pass the Net+ test. I failed it twice (hangs head in shame) I am reading a lot of things from every web site I can find and still can't pass the test. Does anyone have any ideas to give an older woman who is over 50 and trying to get a Net+ certification? There are 10 types of people. Those who…

Failed :(
Took my Net+ this morning and unfortunately failed with a score of 501. I slowly studied the entire Element K CBT over the span of about 2 months between full-time work and school. I already have my A+ and about 10 years of personal use of a computer. However, I have limited hands-on networking experience and I've been…

Hi, I'm writing the network+ exam on Wednesday and I'm having a few problems with the cable standards. I'm using a few different resources for my study and it seems they conflict slightly.

Network+: passed at first attempt
Last Thursday (6th of Sept) passed with a 680 score. For a CCNP and 10+ years IT (sysadmin) experience not a great score I must admit. A score quite a number of people reported over here. The prep was all about exam questions here and on freetests.com and no specific books. The exam was difficult for me, not because of the…

Network+: PASSED!
Hello all. I just passed my Net+ exam with a 680. I was shooting for 700+, but a pass is a pass. It was harder than I imagined. I've heard people on this forum and others say that there was a lot of Novell/Mac/Unix questions on the test. I guess I got lucky, as I got virtually ZERO questions on those three (2 Novell, 1…

Hey everyone! I took the exam today and passed with 650. Not quite the shining score I would have liked, but at least comfortably within the passing score!

Consensus on study guides and labs
I am reading through here and the general consensus is that Sybex and Meyers' books are good ones to look for. I used Sybex for A+ and was pleased. I am the kind of guy that I have to know "why" to really understand what I'm reading. I prefer to learn by reading a little AND doing, instead of reading something and only…

Anyone use Que "Network+ Exam Prep 2"?
I used Exam Cram for my A+, and aced it, that was several years ago, though. I already have the basics down, I think, I did also pass my Microsoft Networking Essentials cert back in the NT4 days.

Study materials
I have been goin over the tech notes on this site and they are helpful however I'm wondering if any one can recommend a good book that I can use in conjunction with tech notes. Also does it make more sense to obtain network+ before security+ or does it matter. Thank you in advance for the advice.

All, Just a quick note that I passed with flying colors the second time I took the exam. Now personally, I'm not nearly overjoyed about this due to the following: 1.

RADIUS uses uses UDP ports 1812 or 1645 for Authentication and 1813 or 1646 for Accounting and manages all AAA fuctions in a single profile but TACACS+ utilizes TCP port 49 and separates authentication and authorization. My book does not say why RADIUS uses UDP ? Can someone…

About two weeks ago. Around 750.... who knows or cares. PASSED is all that matters. I was taken away that 30-40 (almost half the exam) of my questions dealt with Novell/ Netware and OS X server.
