I am reviewing these notes as I took these course years ago. I appreciate you making this public for most of us to learn. Love your textbook, I have it, and it helps to watch as well.

Currently on a study abroad in Spain and am taking computer networks. Just want to say that these videos are so extremely useful for students who struggle with learning from a textbook and prefer visual learning. I appreciate these videos a lot!

Incredibly helpful and generous.

Been a 3rd year student in a Computer Science Department and i just picked up computer networks. l thought this will be a hard subject to take a liking into and pass, and it might still be hard to pass but your videos have made me so interested into the subject and learning this about it is actually enjoyable through your lectures, you're an amazing teacher and I am beyond thankful for this course being available online for free.

why dont you list these videos on youtube so that its easier to reach?

[@JimKurose]

Hi Abdullah. I'm making the whole series public now. I wanted to "soft launch" them and see if people found them useful before publicly listing them. Jim
