Disappointing

I wanted a book to teach me about the intricacies of networking, but this is more helpful to someone tasked with being a network administrator of a very small business network. It does start out with some good basics but then launches off into basics for multiuser networks. I was hoping for some real expertise on the setup and operation of home networks.

Not for true dummies like me

Was expecting a book for someone that knows nothing or very little about networking but was disappointed when I read it. It doesn't teach the basics (in my opinion)
