Wireless WAN's Made Clear

On my way to the CWNA - CWSP and soon CWNI certifications I came across this book and I am glad I did. Ron Gilster one of the authors and is well know in the Dummies books which tend to break down complicated subjects into managable bite size bits. So it is with this book.This book and its sister publication Wireless Security End to End (ISBN 0764548867), got me comfortable in a month before I tackled the CWNA Study Guide (ISBN 0072229020) and the CWSP Study Guide (ISBN 0072230126) from Planet 3.Don't underestimate Wireless Lans when it comes to exam study, they are a different approach to networking that many a seasoned "wired" networking pro gets wrong. Just look at how many insecure wireless Lans are out there giving the quickest way in to the heart of some of the most supposed secure networks.This book and its sister publication are well worth the money and an easy introduction to the more involved studies ahead if you are certifiying. If your not and just want to set up a SOHO setup or can't eat dinner without the laptop with you then this book will show you how to set a secure system up in a painless manner. Recommended.
