CWNP - A Vendor-Independent Certification Path

This is the comments thread for the article CWNP - A Vendor-Independent Certification Path. Should you wish to read the article follow this link.

A small tidbit regarding the CWNA - unlike many exams, they expect you to become a "wireless expert". That means knowing the value and acronym of all the little things in the criteria, so keep this in mind. Also note that recently Planet3 has changed the exam, so old study guides may be out of date.

Thank you for the note. Being a more general approach to wireless networks, CWNA has to cover a wide range of topics and this requires lots of study.
And regarding the cahnges. I have put a link at the note in the end of my article which speaks about these changes.
According to CWNP, the study guides are still used and all the changes are listed on CWNP's webste which are not that much of a change.
The changes are not originally done by CWNP. IEEE has made some changes in the acronyms of the standards and thats why CWNP changed the materials.
