Foundations for a career in WiFi June 17, 2010
Pawan Jheeta (Toronto, Ontario)
This study guide provides the foundations of WiFi communications. The material is non-vendor specific, contains plenty of examples and contains all the info needed to write the CWNA with confidence.
Coleman is an excellent author, and knows his stuff! I highly recommend this book to any network engineer, or amateur WiFi enthusiast.
Very in depth and easy to understand. January 6, 2010

This version of the CWNA study guide is the best yet. The authors have drawn on their years of experiences in both training and in the field and have poured their hearts out.
The section on 802.11n is a great foundation for anyone wishing to get a primer to begin understanding the massive changes that 802.11n has brought about. The RF principles are outstanding and some of the best I've seen yet in any 802.11 text of which I've read most. Never have I seen a book that actually explained the radiation diagrams (you might know these to be the e-plane or h-plan diagrams) that antenna and access point manufacturers provide. I had to look long and hard to find good info on that previously. Bottom line, the foundational topics important to just about every aspect of WiFi is contained in this book.
Without question, this book should be the WiFi bible for anyone dealing with WiFi for their organization whether wanting to achieve the CWNA certification or not.
Great job, gentlemen!
Material is on target for the test December 26, 2009

Having just taken (and passed) the CWNA exam with this as my primary reference, I applaud the authors, both for their thorough coverage and readable style. This is one of the best exam prep books I've used. My advice: read it cover to cover, then read the last chapter (802.11n) at least one more time... there were more questions about HT than I was expecting. The test is quite up-to-date.
Excellent Resource and necessity for CWNA July 8, 2009

The CWNA study guide by David Coleman and David Wescott is an excellent detailed overview of the 802.11 technologies. As an RF Engineer and Consultant, I often find people have switching and routing backgrounds, but lack the fundamentals of wireless networking. I recommend this book to them because it is clear, concise, and easy to follow- whether you are reading a single concept or an entire chapter. The book has the right amount of depth to be understandable to the beginner, and also keep seasoned engineers interested. It does an excellent job of covering all the aspects needed to pass the certification exam, and provides a solid foundation where students can build upon as they go into the higher levels of learning, and administration of WLANs.
