Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-08-25 Summary: Probably the best introductory book out there on wireless ... I broke down and bought this book because the information I found on the Internet regarding wireless security never seemed to put together a comprehensive explanation of everything I wanted to know. This book will tell you all about wireless connection at home and elsewhere. The dangers, risks and ways to protect yourself. It even recommends various software applications (most of them free) that you can use to check out all the wireless packets streaming through the air. WireShark was one such application. I was shocked ...more
[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-03-12 Summary: Superb book considering the intended audience ... In my opinion, this book is the best single book for non-techies who want to setup wireless networks, connect to wireless networks, or simply understand them better. The book does cover many technical aspects of Wi-Fi and broadband wireless, but not at the levels of depth required by the technical professional; however, that is not the target audience, so that is no a weakness. I really wanted to give the book five stars, but I could not because of one errant phrase with huge implications. On page 152, when giving ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-04-30 Summary: useful resource for wireless tech ... An excellent guide to the mysteries of broadband wireless networks.

The text itself is friendly and clear, with great examples strewn throughout. There's a lot of depth to the explanations too - everyone from a techie to a wifi novice will find useful information in ...more

You'll learn how to set up your own home (or small office) wireless network and how to use public wireless networks,...more

[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-04-09 Summary: Nice 11n book to have as reference ... This is a well written book. This book explains both PHY and MAC concepts pretty extensively. This book has something for everyone. I would have personally preferred if they had devoted the entire book to the working of MAC though. Good part of having this book is I don't have to refer to the 11n spec for every small detail. The book does a good job of condensing the 11n spec ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-03-19 Summary: You Need This Book ... If you need to understand the nuts and bolts of 802.11n, you need this book. It goes into great detail. The explanations are as simple as possible but no simpler. It is densely packed with good information on 802.11n. It focuses strictly on 802.11(n) and does not go off on tangents. The book begins with how MIMO works. It explains it rigorously without much spoonfeeding. Then it goes into interoperability with a/g devices with background into why they did it how they did it and what that means for users. It goes to ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-10-26 Summary: Good Book ... A well written and easy to understand book. Does not get dry or boring and fairly easy to find what you need. Also some good info on related technologies. A glaring omission however, is a lack of detailed info on how windows handles wireless logons.

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-11-10 Summary: Originality Squared! ... I've been aware of Stross for awhile now, and I know about his growing reputation for highly original post-cyberpunk fiction, but this collection of nine short stories is my first real experience with his writing. There's something of a Tim Powers flavor to his work that gives it considerable appeal. "Missile Gap" is about the Cold War of c.1979 as it continues on the huge flat disk in the Lesser Magellanic Cloud to which Earth's continents have been removed by some unknown agency. (Now, *there's* a set-up for a story!) ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-09-23 Summary: More great work by Stross ... Disclosure - I am a Charlie Stross fan. Read this review with that in mind. This is a collection of 9 short stories and novellas. Of the stories there are 3 standouts; "Missile Gap" - which should be made into a novel. Earth's crust is laid out on a huge disc orbiting another star by aliens who watch how we manage with the changed circumstances as we explore and find evidence of other planets and intelligences similarly placed. "Palimpsest" - ditto. This is a modern rendering of Asimov's "The End of Eternity" and much ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-09-18 Summary: awe-inspiring scope ... Amazing book. As we talk about past masters like Heinlein and Asimov, so future generations will speak of Charles Stross. ...more

Hacking Exposed Wireless: Wireless Security Secrets & Solutions
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2007-06-11 Summary: Current Info On Wireless Network Security ... Maybe it's just me, but it seems like the Hacking Exposed series was in an extended hiatus. It has emerged with a vengeance. Hacking Exposed - Wireless is just one of a series of new Hacking Exposed books and there are more to come throughout the coming months. While it has been a while since there were new Hacking Exposed books, it seems like it has been even longer since we have had a new book on wireless network security. A topic as rapidly changing and evolving as wireless network technology and security needs ...more
[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2007-05-06 Summary: Solid but not exceptional ... When I read and reviewed Wi-Foo: The Secrets of Wireless Hacking three years ago, I was really impressed. Wi-Foo is obviously showing its age now, but a second edition is in the works. I was excited to see Hacking Exposed: Wireless (HE:W), green cover and all, because I hoped it would be just as good as Wi-Foo but covering newer topics. Overall I think the next Wi-Foo will be better than HE:W, but HE:W is currently the most up-to-date book on wireless security available. Most readers can avoid the first 60 pages or ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-02-18 Summary: Book Review: Hacking Exposed Wireless ... Hacking Exposed Wireless is built on the same template as the other excellent books in the Hacking Exposed series. I find the book very informative, and I'll keep it close, when I'll perform WiFi testing on the corporate network. The Attack and Countermeasure sections in the chapters of the Hacking Exposed series, are one of the things I really like about books. They give you a good overview about the risks involved - and how to test and mitigate these risks. The book consists of 11 chapters grouped in 3 sections: ...more
