Q. Just wondering what the difference between a computer technician and a computer network technician was... I'd also like to know what computer network techs do and how much they make, thank you.
A. Computer technicians are general technicians, they can fix anything on the computer.
Network technicians are specialized only in the network of a computer and advanced problems, They can fix internet, ip's, and everything that has to do with internet and connecting.
If they work for microsost, they make alot of $$

What is the future outlook for jobs as a Computer Network System Administrator?
Q. I've been thinking really hard to go to school this fall for Computer Network System Administrator. I was planning on completing an Associates degree for it. I just want to make sure by the time I complete the 2yr degree there will be a job available for Computer Network System Administrator. I am planning on taking the class at a community college. Thanks ahead of time!
A. Depends on where you live. A larger city will have more computer networking jobs. A smaller city, you may have to have a wider scope of skills, since you would have to support more than one business. Unlike other computer jobs like programing and level one tech support, Networking is not getting outsourced to other countries. Once you get your degree, I recommend getting as many certifications as you can. I would start with CompTIA Network +, A+ and Server +. Then move on to more specialized certs such as MCSE (they recently updated the test and it is called something else now). In a larger city where you would have to set your self apart from everyone else that is graduating in this field, you may want to look into more of a focused area, such as Terminal Services/Citrix, Security. In a smaller city, get a wide knowledge, because most small to medium businesses don't hire IT people full time, so they will use you as a consultant as they need. You will most probably support several businesses.
Not many companies will hire you out of school to be their Network Administrator. Look to spend a couple of years at helpdesk answering phone calls or reseting passwords. Then as you prove your self you will get more responsibilities.
The two year associates route, is not bad, but certifications are needed to get your foot in the door. It's a shame too since most IT people I have met from 2 year schools, know more about Network administration than the 4 year crew.
Good luck to you.

A. Anything in computers is going to be a safe bet for some time because all companies are going computerized so demand is very high and will be for a long time.
How do I design a computer network for a school?
Q. I'm taking a network and configurations class, and the final project is to build a school in which I design the computer network. I have to show a budget for all materials etc. I just dont know where to start. I'm not sure what I need to build a net work. My planned school will be pretty small, maybe 10-12 classrooms, and of course offices and stuff. We dont have to specify the types of computers, the focus is more on the network setup, wiring, wireless, access points etc. Anybody got a clue where I should start? Maybe a good tutorial site? Thanks!
EDITED DETAILS: (THE CLASS HAS ONLY MET ONE TIME, IT IS JUST BEGINNING. I AM A NEW STUDENT TO AN ALREADY FORMED COHORT. FOR MOST OF THE STUDENTS, THIS IS THEIR LAST CLASS. THIS IS ONLY MY 2ND.) I AM NOT LOOKING FOR A "FREEBIE" OR FOR ANYONE TO DO MY WORK FOR ME. I AM JUST LOOKING FOR SUGGESTIONS, TUTORIALS, ETC. THANKS!)

A. Start with a scaled drawing of the facility that you're going to install the network in.
Then decide what features you will need and what services you need to provide to your users.
That should get you started. If you've been paying attention in class, you should not have any trouble taking it from there.
