Hola Gustavo so you are saying that IPExperts solution is not good for
the first Attempt? What version of the WorkBook did you bought?
Thanks
Victor

>I bought IpExpert, Workbook + Proctor Guide. It didn't have the solutions, which allowed me to configure stuff as I thought they would be, guided by the proctor guide, and of course forced me to dig for the answers on the documentation (books or docCD). Then I went to the lab. I failed. I had no surprises on the technology, Ipexpert covered it extensively. I think my problem was that I was used to do things "my own way". When I checked after doing a practice lab the solutions provided at their forum, many of them I didn't agree, or they were outdated. At a point I just did not trust the solutions anymore. The point is that, even failing, I still think Ipexpert is a great exercise book!

My purpose from it is that I review all the technology and look at their solutions+explanations, in order to get some guidance on the wording, and the subtleties involved with a task. For refinement...
