Taking my Network + Exam soon

Thund3r

Hi guys, i found this forum recently and must say it's great and extremely informative.

I'll be taking my Network + soon. I'm using the CompTIA Network+ Self Study Guide, 2nd Edition Anthony V. Chiarella

Any advice would be appreciated

Cheers

Welcome Thund3r!
Definately check out the Tech Notes on this site, they are excellent. It's always best to use more than one source for your studies.

I can't remember too much from the exam, except that I had several questions on fiber cable/connectors and commands like tracert, ping, nslookup and such. Also more questions than expected on Novell and MAC. Maybe 4 of each or there abouts.

Appreciate the feedback man

Can you recommend another good book for me?

Welcome to Techexams! I liked the Mike Myers books for Net+. i also used the Technotes from this site, worth every cent, and they're pretty cheap for what you get inside, written by Webmaster here. Also, make sure you go over the objectives from Comptias site, and be familiar with each...

Some things to remember regarding the exam, I found, were know your OSI model, know your ports, TCP/IP diagnostics utilities, DNS, Netbios, which hardware operates at the certain layers of the OSI reference model, cable lengths etc, etc. but I suppose every exam is different, also with the new exam objectives, know your wireless technologies, take plenty of exams (practise, that is), technotes here, the Sybex book is good and Mike Myers Network+ Passport book, and you should do fine, and make sure you are scoring 85-90% pon the practise exams, and lastly.......................Good luck

Hi there, several things:

1. First off, welcome to the forums!

2. Second, congrats on your Net+ pass!

3. And third, keep in mind that you signed a non-disclosure agreement when you took the test, which you will be violating if you tell anyone the exact questions that you saw on the test. It's OK to mention topics that were tested, but revealing the actual questions is a no-no.
