That's the kind of simple mistake that is unfortunately really easy to make when writing lots of material. Someone should have caught it, but publishing processes are not optimized for finding errors. (You would think they would be, but they aren't.) Sounds like your change is correct. > > Pg. 193. > > Figure 6.1 Bit 46 should read U/L and not I/G as listed in bit > 47. Tell us more and maybe we can confirm that your fix is right. Figures are very prone to copy-and-paste errors. It's probably just that. A lot of publishers have artists redraw the figures. I guess to make sure they get the font right they copy and paste a lot. > > Pg. 194 > > Figure 6.2 (Ethernet II Frame) > > Sync (Pattern 11) should read 2 bits and not "11 bits" Maybe they meant the value in binary, not the number of bits??? I realize you were hoping somebody who actually had the book would respond, but nobody did, so I did! :-) Bottom line, trust your instincts. You probably have truly found some mistakes that you should report to the publisher. By the way, is the book good otherwise? The Amazon reviews look positive.
