Re: PASSED - Configuring Windows 8.1
@XxNooniexX Great, thank you! The wealth of information is incredible, you would make a good teacher, perhaps someday in IT. Yes, Professor Messer is wonderful especially as a visual reference to the CompTIA books. For now I think I will stick to passing the Security+, I have already purchased Darril Gibsons book, which… -
Re: Pursuing a Networking Career?
My networking career started when I landed a NOC role in June 2006 and I only had CompTIA/Microsoft certs at the time. My IT experience prior to that was 2+ years of building/delivering/installing pc's and 2 -3 months of pc refreshment (back up data, take away old pc, set up new pc, move data/programs to new machine). I… -
Re: Tier 1
I would consider CompTIA A+, Net+ as well as Security+ all help desk oriented certifications. It's kind of a vague question because depending on the help desk depends on what technical skills you need. I worked at the help desk at one company where you did nothing but troubleshoot a specific application - something where… -
Re: I hate PearsonVue so much
PV is, indeed, horrible. I had a situation where I couldn't log in to the CompTIA membership site and I, for whatever reason, ended up with a second login. When I realized that, I called CompTIA, they resolved the issue (merged accounts), then told me to contact PearsonVue to make sure that everything is good-to-go… -
Re: Everyone saying "get some hardware experience"?!?!
I just recently passed three A+ exams. 601, 602 and 604. While plenty of experience naturally helps it CAN also hinder you a little bit. Not to sound like a maverick technician, but the right way or the correct answer is not always the CompTIA way. For instance, Apple OS X isn't really a proprietary version of Linux, it… -

Passed LX0-104 today, got Linux+ and LPIC-1
Hi guys, brief story short. Did LX-103 about a year ago, had a baby, had to take a few months off from EVERYTHING. Picked up Linux again earlier this year and studied as hard as I could for LX0-104. Some days I'd get 30 minutes of studying done, some days I'd get 2-3 hours of studying. It was rough. I'm mainly in a Windows… -
Very good training video's (Network+ on Udemy by Mike Meyers)
Hey everyone. Just wanted to share some, I feel, very valuable and pertinent training materials for the new Net+ exam. As many of you already know, CompTIA updated their Net+ to the new N10-006 on Oct. 2015 and it is much more difficult. It currently has a 30% pass rate nationwide, and many training vendors are having an…
