Toys! (2851 & 877)

 | 5 Jan 2006 22:03

Extra power sockets...Yeeha, the first Cisco ISR routers have come in. I’ve now got a 2851 with HWIC-4ESW and a 877 to test. Let’s see how well these will do in my QoS tests…

The 1803 has arrived as well and a 878 has been ordered to test SDSL as well as ADSL (877).

More books

Right I’ve got 8 of the 15 books and I’m hoping DHL will deliver 2 more tomorrow so I can take all books home with me when we go back home on the 2nd of Jan (2006). The book list has been updated with all known ISBN numbers and title corrections, I’m trying to include the volume and edition numbers as it’s hard to tell the books apart when you want to order them.

Amazon told me that a book I ordered directly from them wasn’t available anymore so I’ve just ordered it from Computer Collectief in NL. Their site stated that they’d need to order it and it will be 36 EUR instead of USD but hey at least their cheaper than most and postage was only 2,- so I shouldn’t complain really. Hoping the other 2 books ordered through Amazon’s ‘one-click’ ™ are waiting for me at the post-office or at least haven’t been shipped back yet…

Right, it’s not a mere thought anymore. 2 of the 13 books have arrived and I can start studying over X-mas, eek! I know I shouldn’t waste any time but I’m reluctant to start, hard to decide to where to start. Suppose I’ll follow the CCIE R&S written blueprint as I planned.
