Define the difference between an open network and a closed network?

There are two kinds of 'household networks', Open and Closed. Open networks can be joined by anyone at anytime. Closed networks require permission to join. When you attempt to join a closed network, a notice is sent to the Closed Network's administrator requesting that you be allowed to join. That person will respond either accepting or denying your request. (remember, once you've joined a network, you cannot leave that network for 30 days - security reasons).


Is it hackers related to computer networks why and how?

Yes.. hackers hack into networks. Why... for various reasons. They mightened like the owners of the network. If there's a server on the network, it will come in handy if they need any hardcore work done (breaking encryptions) if they want to launch an attack against another network or website. Steal employee data. Steal data in general. Steal bandwidth. Lots more reasons. How... hundreds of ways. It could be a work / school network (thats how alot of hackers start out). If this is the case, then they have permissons.. just need to escalate those permissions. Keyloggers, sniffers, find a weakness in any web apps the server is hosting (if any), find a weakness in the server OS, social engineering, send remote access trojand to users on the network. If its a negihbours wireless network then its just a matter of cracking the WEP/WPA key.
