What is a Router?
The router is a device used to connect computers, printers, and other end devices through Ethernet cables or a wireless connection to share a single Internet connection. It protects your computer system and data from any intrusion and attack.
How Does a Router Work?
Typically, a router connects to the modem's "Internet" or "WAN" port over a network connection, then connects to other network devices over another network cable.
To receive data packages from servers, each router has a different (external) IP address, and every device on the user network receives a distinct (MAC) address. The router keeps a database to record which device requested information from where whenever you attempt to access information online.
