4.0 out of 5 stars
very book book, but "networking by example" was better
I looked through this and about 5-10 other books on home networking at a bookstore. This book was my second choice, but I ultimately went for "Networking by Example" by Barry Press (which was especially helpful for people making networks with Linux and Windows in the same network). The Henricks book was easy to follow, clearly explained, and had fairly good...

Not a "How To" book
Falls short if you are looking for a step by step guide on how to implement a Home Network. Very little discussion about statis IP connections, using routers or printservers. Primarily includes descriptions of various technologies as well as advantages and disavantages. Troubleshooting section consists of recommendations to contact someone who knows networking and...

Very little discussion about statis IP connections, using routers or printservers.Primarily includes descriptions of various technologies as well as advantages and disavantages. Troubleshooting section consists of recommendations to contact someone who knows networking and references to websites to go to for assistance.

This book was my second choice, but I ultimately went for "Networking by Example" by Barry Press (which was especially helpful for people making networks with Linux and Windows in the same network). The Henricks book was easy to follow, clearly explained, and had fairly good diagrams. But once again, I thought the Networking by Example was better.

Great read: simple, yet informative,
By Brian R. Hook (St. Louis, MO USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mastering Home Networking (Paperback)
Mastering Home Networking, by Mark Henricks, is an informative and entertaining way to learn about how you can network your computers together. I must admit that I am not a big fan of technology books. But this one is a bit different. The author does not treat the reader like an idiot. But at the same time, the author does not treat the reader like a technological genius. The subject matter is treated in a way that both a beginner and a expert can enjoy. If you want to learn how to network your computers together, to enhance your business, make home life simpler, or just for entertainment, this is a great book that will take you through the necessary steps.

Masterpiece,
By Patrick Brown (Highland Village, TX United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mastering Home Networking (Paperback)
Truly the bible for novice and advanced home networkers. Takes a complex subject and breaks it down in a logical and orderly fashion for ease of understanding and implementation. I have so many pages earmarked with paper clips for current and future reference, I am afraid to take it through airport security! Cheap at twice the price! |
