    I just had my first job interview today for an ICT Operator position, and while I was preparing for it, I have watched a lot of your videos. This was one of the last ones and they have asked me what a MAC Address was and I was able to tell them where to find it because this video reminded me how to do it :Đ I'm so thankful for your channel!

    Zach, love these videos. Great information for the novice techie. I'm going for a degree in Cybersecurity, and I have had almost no previous IT experience. I've taken 4 of my classes so far, and the only thing I don't like is there isn't enough hands on material like this. We learned about ipconfig and pinging, but getting the statistics of how long the computer has been running and other information that you are showing in these videos is invaluable.
    Could you please start an entire series playlist that you do tutorials like this? I see on your channel you have a lot of useful information, but it would be really nice for you to have a dedicated playlist that really showcases and gets people learning some great information! Please!

    Just a question about the "net statistics srv" command, isn't a command just to check the following statistics shown below like the "No's system error, etc, etc.." not about how long the computer's been up because when I tried/tested it on my PC the statistic date that was stated was 22 days ago and I don't believe my computer's running that long since I rebooted so many time like I only use it for about 8-12 hrs. Maybe the statistic is just to check the statistic on errors and they get refreshed whenever the computer's data on statistics become full. Idk, correct me if I'm mistaken :)

Looking forward to my security+, but do I need strong networking like Cisco in order to be cyber security entry level or network+ is just good enough? Going orders security+ to CEH to finally Cissp when I have more experience level. Security+ is first my target in the cyber security field. I don’t know why but I’m able to hack in wireless and cmd to change someone’s admin can easily login your system using cmd prompt, is a lot to explain but I’m targeting cyber security field. I love to solve challenges it gets me excited in cyber security.

      Of course. Web servers can see your IP address as well as if you ping. Realistically, nothing bad happens if you ping a website for a little bit.
