Frankly speaking, most I learned was the mock labs on ccie ei. No bs just config and fine tuning

Now you don’t even need an actual local lab, go to cisco labs and start configuring

Cisco Networking Academy has some great content, IMO, aligned to their CCST/CCINT/CCNA certs.

Best way is just buy random networking equipment: switches, AP's, routers etc. and repurpose old PCs as routers and what not. Get some ground knowledge and experience, then have a gander for CompTIA and Cisco Certification

i like reading books ans then use YouTube videos as complemtent only. try courses for comptia network+, ccna is specific for cisco but still takes the basics of networking
