I started the course a little while ago and found it to be very tough to get through. There are zero assignments or practical exercises and the only feedback is via in-video questions, which are pretty basic. I ended up writing notes, so the stuff sticks a bit better, but this course essentially became my chore of the day, where I had to force myself to do at least one video a day. I stopped at the end of week 2.

I don't want to skip this topic however so I was looking for alternatives and only found the following two:

• Georgia Tech's Computer Networking on Udacity: https://eu.udacity.com/course/computer-networking--ud436. This is already listed under Extra's and it doesn't seem to be a direct replacement, because the Stanford course is a lot more basic/low level (please CMIIW). Therefore I don't think it is a valid alternative.
• Computer Networks and the Internet by a small German University on edx: https://www.edx.org/course/computer-networks-internet-kironx-fhlcnx. This seems to cover the same content on the same level as the Stanford course.

Has anyone done the second course I listed above or knows of any other alternatives?
