Network+ study materials, advice?

I've been living inside Mike Myers' Network+ book for a few weeks and have so much more understanding of the subject, but when I took the sample test on CompTIA.com I scored a 58%. I know I have to go much deeper in my studies to get those problem solving questions, but an 80% seems so far away!

So I'm looking for other materials to help me in addition to this book. I've found some stuff on the web.

Any suggestions for study materials or encouragement?

CompTIA Network+ Certification Passport, Third Edition by Glen Clarke

That's for exam N10-004.

Well, the first thing I can tell you is to try to get some hands-on experience. Whether you start by going over command-line tools like nslookup, tracert, etc., or you begin tinkering with some routers or switches to see how they work, it's all good. As long as you're getting your hands dirty.

Second, you could probably use some visual learning to go with the book. To that end, I'd recommend the Network+ Series from CBT Nuggets, which comes very highly recommended from countless people on this forum.

Oh, I almost forgot: probably second-best to CBT Nuggets is Professor Messer. Check out his free Network+ videos as well.
