    Net+ is not that difficult as long as your study habits are good. It's an entry level certification. Check out the tech notes on this site for starters.

    http://www.techexams.net/technotes.php

    Net+ is a good intro to the CCNA path, and since you already have your A+ it can count as an elective on MCSA if you choose to go that route. So combined with your A+ or as an intro to Cisco, yes it's worth it.

    I couldn't begin to estimate how long it would take you, but the best thing to do is not worry about how long, and just get started. It will be over before you know it. Good luck! icon_cool.gif

    Network+ is definitely a good starting point if you want to look into the networking field, it will give you exposure to the topic so you will know if networking is something you want to do. If you do you have good study habits this shouldn't be too tough, I personally recommend the exam cram network plus book, just be sure to buy the book for the N10-003 exam. I bought the book for the N10-002 exam and it still helped me pass but it was missing some topics, but i have experience in the field which also helped. Hope this was helpful let us know if you need anything else and good luck!

    I would have to agree with everyone else here. Net + seems like it would benefit you a lot. I just recently got out of a tech school and am hoping having Net + will help me as well, I also have zero network support experience. Good luck!
