Review of Mastering Home Networking (Paperback)

I looked through this and about 5-10 other books on home networking at a bookstore. This book was my second choice, but I ultimately went for "Networking by Example" by Barry Press (which was especially helpful for people making networks with Linux and Windows in the same network).

The Henricks book was easy to follow, clearly explained, and had fairly good diagrams. But once again, I thought the Networking by Example was better.

Product Description
Discusses how a home network can revolutionize home computing, build a home network using cables, powerlines, phonelines, or wireless adapters, share Internet connection, files, printers, and other peripherals, and secure, optimize, and troubleshoot your network.Softcover.CD-ROM included.
