Excellent tutorial on Wi-Fi

Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2012

Verified Purchase

If you want to truly understand Wi-Fi, this is about the best book around. This is meant to be a certification study guide, but I would recommend it even if you have no intention of taking the exam.

Even some of the most experienced IT professionals are pretty ignorant on Wi-Fi. Makes sense since IT folks are used to a digital world, but to really understand Wi-Fi it takes an understanding of RF also.

This book if far from easy, the concepts are pretty hard to master. But the book presents the concepts in as easy to understand way as possible. If you master this book you will really understand Wi-Fi, but if your new to it it's going to be quite an effort. For those of you for this is a bit too much, try the CWTS book in the same series from CWNP - still quite good but less intense, as it's the study guide for the CWNP's entry level test, while the CWNA book is the study guide for CWNP's higher level exam.

good luck,
Huckleberry

I am taking a wireless networking class that required a Cisco book that was outdated and vendor specific. The instructor recommended this book as an alternative for the course so I went ahead and purchased it. I am glad that I took his advice on getting this book. The book is very comprehensive in the subject of wireless networking without promoting a specific vendors technology. The book is designed to get you to pass a vendor neutral certification so it concentrates on teaching you all about wireless technologies across the industry. I recommend that anybody that wants to learn about wireless networks should get this book.

You need more than just this book to pass the CWNA, if you spin in some trainsignal or CBT nuggets and then study the VCE's that are all over the internet you will pass it 100 percent. I'm the type of person who needs multiple ways to learn a subject. So, video, reading and hands on is the way to go.

I had this book for a college class and I was not interested in getting the CWNA certification. I was surprised how much I learned about radio waves and wireless networks. The days of class that I learned the most were the days that we worked with this book.

Interesting read for those wanting to learn more about wireless networking

Reviewed in the United States on February 11, 2014

Verified Purchase

Interesting read. One reason I got this book is to find out why wireless network throughput is usually much slower than specs. This book helped explain why this is the case and a useful starting point for digging into captures of 802.11 management frames. After reading the book I'm interested in taking the CWNA exam, and think it's probably a good resource along with a bit of practical experience.

Be aware - CWNA PW0-105 is replaced by PW0-106 exam in June 2014 !

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 3, 2014

Verified Purchase

The world has moved on a little since I first started reading dry-as-dust technical study books and commensurate with this change I found that it was no problem to simply pick up this book and read it. I managed to read it cover to cover within a week so don't be put off by the fact that it has approaching 700 pages...

There are no extras and I noted that the tear out exam prep sheet is apparently for the previous exam, PW0-104, yet this appears to merely be a typo. A few items can be downloaded from the Sybex website and indeed there are numerous requests throughout the book asking the reader to do this - the information downloaded could have more simply been included on a CD.

The content can be a little confusing at times due to repetition of information and the explanations were sometimes baffling, but given that it's a techie book this can be forgiven. As with most things in life having a second opinion is helpful and I would recommend Matthew Gast's 802.11n to supplement this one, particularly as HT Wireless (802.11-2012) is really taking off.

Speaking of which there is a newer version of this book available in September, however the new PW-106 exam apparently begins in June.

This is a very good book it was exactly what I needed it for. I have not sit the CWNA exam yet. This book did help me pass another Wireless exam that was Sqa equivalent to the CWNA. I would rate this as one of my best books that I have purchased for my studies towards my ccna and networking degree. Overall I am satisfied don't hesitate to buy. Good luck on your studies
