Very expensive tests (which you can take as many times as you are willing to pay for..) that include switches & routers etc. that you have to configure/fix, not just written exams. And if you're very very very good you pass the tests. (The last I looked at them the tests had a less than 12% pass rate) A friend of mine passed and now makes well over 6 figures. Link to comment

He also worked at Comcast for a little bit as a Tech. lol He said that 80% of all his calls are solved by "unplug the modem, plug it back in" Link to comment

That and I'm a cheap basterd and I'd fix it myself when given the option . Link to comment

Very cool, We just finished a small unit on routers and switches in CCNA. stuff can get pretty interesting when you understand it. Link to comment
