in CCNP
I just realized even though routing and switching is so much fun, that going for the CCNP (route and switch) is not for me. Rather, wireless is where it is at! I feel like I just ate a bag full-o-ginseng!

    Sometimes taking a step back and reexamining your priorities is what's needed!

    Good luck on the Wifi track!

    Awesome I'm thinking about getting into wireless in the future. Are you just doing general studying or focusing on a cert i.e. CWNA or CCNA wireless? I'm trying to decide which of those certs is more prominent. I know CWNA has been around longer and isn't vendor specific, so that's good. Is the CCNA wireless respected out there I wonder?

    IMO I think the CWNA holds more weight than the CCNA Wireless does at the moment.

    Well done bro. Nothing like finding your calling.

    Having said that, start reading up on channels and frequencies and modulation strategies... unless you're Spock, you'll feel like you just ate a bag full-o-prozac. That stuff will put you right to sleep.
    There are only 10 kinds of people... those who understand binary, and those that don't.
