Here are some confusing Questions
Suppose someone who doesn't have money to spare on a computer needs a
connexion to the Internet. Which device could you install to allow that user
web access?
A. Modem
B. Telephone
C. Internet appliance
D. NIC
Answer D
I would agree with examdrill about the answer is C
Which step is most subject to network congestion?
A. Displaying the content
B. Server generating content for the output
C. Transmitting the response from server to client
D. The request waiting in the server's queue.
Answer B
In Examdrill it states "Transmitting the response from server to client"
9. Which network hardware device connects dissimilar network topologies into
an internetwork?
A. Gateway
B. Router
C. Bridge
C. Hub
Answer A
( From CCNA training, I know Router connects "dissimilar network topologies"
and Gateway connects "dissimilar network Protocals"
18. What is the least secure
A. Internet
B. Extranet
C. Intranet
D. VPN
Answer C
I see a few dumps says C. From practical experience I would say A, An Intranet is a private Internet network within a corporation ... of course to get to a company's intranet you first have to get pass their firewall security... Am I right?
21. Which technology implements VPNs using IPsec?
A. L2TP
B. PPP
C. SLIP
D. PPTP
Answer D
I know the answer is A because IPsec is Cisco L2TP
Take a look at these two Questions below, I got them from Examdrill and 2 different dumps and a few other people that wrote the exams. look how tricky these two questions are:-
Which Internet bandwidth link type would be best for a small ISP serving 100 dial-up users?
A. 56K
B. T1
C. T3
D. ATM
Answer B
Based on speed and cost, which Internet bandwidth link type would be the
best choice for a small ISP serving 100 dial-up users?
A. 56K
B. T1
C. T3
D. ATM
Answer A
Some of your user connecting via RAS, what's best to prevent unauthorized access to your network?
A. Call Waiting
B. Enable Callback
C. Gateway
D. Firewall
Answer: Firewall
If anyone agrees with me that the answer is B. because when I did Microsoft NT Workstation 4.0 exam, there was a question last this
I am taking this exam next week, anyone have any other dump or question on the exam for me? this will be very helpful

These are the answes that I would give to the questions that you have posted.
1. C
2. C
9. Bridge (Network Hardware device)
18. Definitely not C (I would say A maybe B)
21. A
Dial up user question I would answer T1 for both.
Prevent unauthorised access I would also say Enable callback security but that is specifically for Microsoft so could be Firewall.
If anyone disagrees with these answers I won't be offended.

Thank you very much Guys,
I was debating weather I was wrong on those questions, Although I questioning myself how come these people are posting such misinformation dumps after they have passed the i-Net+
very puzzling to me,
I like Thor and Freak Study Guide very much I hope this will be a GREAT help to me guys keep up the good work
Thank you
Ramdayal

This exam is based a little more on practical everyday work in the field of IT according to all of the questions and most of the answer I came across so far. We however at Compaq Computers, uses CISCO Router to use on different network topologies. A bridge I would say use to extend and boost the frequency and of the same network topology, will foward a packet based on it's MAC address. Of course Bridge operates on the MAC's Data Link Layer. Router operates on the Network layer. A router can connect dissimilar topologies e.g. Ethernet and Token Ring.
like I said before and I still say the answer for this question:-
9. Which network hardware device connects dissimilar network topologies into
an internetwork?
A. Gateway
B. Router
C. Bridge
C. Hub
Answer A
My answer still remains to be B from the very first starting of this debate.
These are in my own word based upon experience.

More thoughts on the router/bridge question.
It seems to be generally agreed upon that both routers and bridges are capable of connecting different topologies into and "internetwork".
The question doesn't specifically say it needs to be routable. From a NetBEUI, or Microsoft point of view, a bridge would be a good answer. The reasoning is the idea that if you don't need routable protocols, a bridge is faster and probably less expensive.
From an "Internet" point of view, the Internet is built with routers and not bridges. i-NET+ is an Internet technologies cert and I would assume CompTIA was thinking in terms of connecting a variety of different networks to form the Internet when they created this question.
Bottom line is that it all depends on what CompTIA is looking for and I don't know for sure either.

I agree with Bob R.
Even if Comptia are looking for the bridge answer I believe the most correct answer is B Router.
Part of the Question is "connects dissimilar network topologies into an internetwork?"
The key-words here are "dissimilar network topologies". Correct me if I'm wrong but I assume they mean Ethernet > Frame-Relay/ATM/Token etc. They are not talking about protocols, so Gateway is out really.
Now if you are designing an Internetwork with different network topologies... would you install a bridge? I wouldn't and how many networks would you see with a bridge connecting this type of internetwork these days?
The question does have some ambiguity and even if Comptia want the bridge answer I don't think it's a real-world example.
Just my 2 cents anyway.
Best Regards
