I am about to start studying for the NET+. I was going to go Cisco route instead of Net+ but I read something that said that would be like taking CALCULUS when you havent even taken ALGEBRA....LOL! I have my A+, this website was a great help, so I decided to come back. I just ordered my N10-005 edition book by Mike Meyers. Also I am a JR. at University of Phoenix, in one of my courses they gave me a a complete video guide like here on the site. I am going to use all 3 tools!!! If you have any suggestions, links, or materials I would love to here about them! GLAD TO BE BACK PROFESSOR MESSER!!!!!!!

Best of luck to you.
I used Trainsignal vids(Ed Liberman) and Prof Messer when I did my net+
It was a good decision you made to do Net+ before considering Cisco. This is exactly how I did it and I am sure i'd have found the Cisco stuff harder if I hadn't already had a basic introduction to it with the Net+
