Hallo,

Many, many thanks for your site.

I passed the Network Essentials yesterday with 931. So I had about 5 mistakes due to the "nice way" Microsoft formulates the questions.   Considering the fact that english is not my native language I did quite well. The braindumps have been of real help . I had already seen about 90% of the questions in my test but otherwise formulated. I think the guys at Microsoft get their kick out of twisting the questions in such a way to drive us mad.

Anyway, it was my fourth exam. From the comments of the braindumps I got a little scared about the exam but the acuall exam was quite easy. Somebody was talking here about the blue screen of death. Ok, if it is your first exam it can be scary but after the Enterprise ( where the blue screens hit you one after another like a pneumatic hammer) it is not that bad.

Something else: some of the questions have only 2 choices instead of 4 as in previous exams.

About the study material: I have never used Sybex or Transcenders or whatever. Simply the Microsoft Courses , in this case the Microsoft self paced kit, braindumps and for every doubtfull questions from the braindumps-Technet articles.

A few good sites for this exam except Robert's:

//frontpage.idsonline.com/sallard: 1 gift:

103questions compiled bij Steve Sallard in exam form ( without answer). 90% of the answers are in the Microsoft book en the rest you can get from the Technet.

 Another site:

www.visualmcp.com/ne/default_2.asp with 4 online exams ( each of 29 questions) about Net Essent.

Somewhere on the Sallard site one can find a quicker link to the above exams.

Look also for other sites published in the braindups. On one of them I found a free exam sample diffrent of Mcpep but I don't remember where.

Now my small contribution with answers ( as I answered - no guarantee that they are good answersand marked with ***). I tried to remember the actual wording af the questions which is different from what I have seen here.

I had also the inevitable questions about the 3 sites and what kind of connection shoud have been used between them ( Ti or 28,8 modems). Considering taht they have been discussed hier I am not going to go into details. Idid not choose the 28,8 modems option as a good one because I could not verify the modem formula published in the braindumps.

There where a lot more questions but I can not remember them and I don't even want to. Now I'm off on a 3 weeks holyday in Tibet and then back for the last 2 ones ( TCP/IP and IIS 4)

Lots of luck to all that are sudying now.
