Certs are good.....I need to get my a$$ back in gear and pick up/update a few. Security is HUGE and where the bucks are at present.

If you've been working in networking for any amount of time and are comfortable w/ TCP/IP you could probably bang out the network+ one w/ out the training. If you can, take that one 1st to "Warm up" on. A+ is actually harder and, if it still the case, is 2 exams to get the Cert.

Take lots of practice exams and hit the exam dumps to help you out. The Exam Cram series of books are pretty helpful too. You can know this stuff front and back but you need to know the minds of the test writers. After the 1st couple of tests they get easier because you figure out how they are approaching the subject matter, then you're off and running.

I spent 3 years swearing my job title was "Professional Exam Taker"

Good Luck

For the most part, I think I could pass all the tests for Net+ and A+ with only a bit of refreshing and a practice test or two..

Part of this is "team builder" for the group
Part of this is to see how bad we want it.

Getting them to pay for other stuff, might be a chore, so I need to prove how much this means to me by dealing with this first..

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

I haven't worked for company where that stuff matters in years. I kinda miss the certs. When I was with a big company we used to go to certs during work, so I did not have to go after hours. That was nice.

BJ's if you need any help in the VoIP stuff - lemme know. I am pretty strong on SIP, not so much so for 323, MGCP, Megaco, cisco-skinny.
