Reader Reviews
I'm using this book as reference material in a wireless LAN course I'm teaching at a local college. I started out using the official CWNA study guide but I like this one better and have switched to it for the following reasons: 1. It is more up to date. 2. It has lots fewer typo errors. 3. The CD adds value to the book. 4. I like the end of chapter multiple choice questions (and the answers are in the book). 5. The authors explain concepts in a clear and concise manner. I wish the authors could have done more with Security. But security is such a complex topic, it really needs a book of its own and one or two chapters in any book is not enough to really cover this topic. The students like this book and actually like it better than the books selected by the previous instructor. All in all I think it's a great value. If you want to learn the basics of wireless networking, get this book and a wireless access point and wireless adapter card for your computer and go for it.
