I have a networking cert from CompTIA.org, but no hands on experience and would like to know the best way to acquire some. I can't really afford classes.
any thoughts?

Well the best way to learn is get a job that requires you to work in that field. However most companies won't hire you unless you have skills. The way I got started in it was I was hired on as an IT PC Tech and they were outsourcing their networking. My VP wanted me to take over the networking so sent me to training to get my MCSE.
Do you know of any way I can acquire some basic skills without taking a class. Thanks for the quick response.

Hands on is key for networking. Problem will be the equipment. If you can get the equipment, you can try things from one of the an online tutorials
but if you cannot get access to the equipment, then I do not see how you can get practice without taking a class
Yea equiptment is key, my suggestion is getting a job with the equiptment and gives you the access to play with it. If you are not able to get a job doing this you can always rent a dedicated server from my website http://aeondomains.com and test it out their via Plex or any other remote software.

In the interview, when interviewers ask how much experience you have in

I have a table with the fields Location, MachineName ,Hours and Date.
(The actual database is more complex but it will do for the purposes of this

I want to return Location, MachineName and the sum of the hours between two

I'm using a function like this:
