    I have done, but I just now find it easier to plug into the back of my PC.

    wizard,

    Just like you're showing the "sexy side" of the Catalysts, why not show the "sexy side" of the routers? I wanna do a "port scan" :)

    Finally found out from the OU today the monthly payments for the course £112 per month for 4 months then £108 in the final month, I knew it would be a little high because of the length of the course, but never realised it would be that high. Good job I'm working 2 agency jobs at the moment :D

    Its going ok even though I'm starting to think that I'd have been better off just using the companion volumes I've already got, I'm just basically paying for the day schools unless the course includes the cost of the exam.

    Just a little update now onto CCNA2 passed the CCNA 1 exam only 65% though, but it doesn't bother me much as I will gain better knowledge once I'm in a suitable job. :)

    Congrats Mr Wizard :)

    Would you mind telling me (briefly) what format the course takes ?
    e.g are there 3 exams you have to take, do you have to travel to a specific OU site to take these ?
    Have you been to any 'practical' sessions, how good are they ?
    Can you sit the exams when you want or are you told the dates they are going to be at the beginning ?

    Thanks

    There are 4 residential schools that normally come towards the end of each semester, you take a final semester exam at each residential school, once you have passed that exam you move on to the next semester.

    So at Residential School 1 you would take the final exam for CCNA 1, etc..

    There is an end of course examination, but I don't know what exam that is, just got me scheduled for a final exam in April.

    Hope that helps 8)
