Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Three Authors, one poorly written book; this is a scenario of too many cooks spoil the broth. Each Author shares their expertise but neither illustrates a solid foundation regarding the real how-to's of Wireless Home networks.
For starter the title of the book is Wireless Home Networking, this should have been the premises of the book; why so many chapters were spent on trivial topics like going wireless with your car, motorcycle, expensive home security camera setup and such topics is beyond me. Subsequently other topics went lacking, like networking configuration, workgroups and a full spectrum troubleshooting chapter. I have a two desktop and one laptop PC wireless home installed prior to buying this work and believe me you can encounter far more issues in setup and trouble shooting than this book care to discuss.
The authors admittedly states on page 208 that workgroups are a common mistake that users make with setting up multiply PC networks, however, (beyond a few command prompts) offers little help on the topic. This book does provide some insight on wireless home network, however, there has to be better books on the subject. Finally, if you're buying the 2nd edition after 2005, this book is severely out-of-date.
