Router Description

Router Description by Marcin ec1521635
A network device that forwards data packets from one network to another. Based on the address of the destination network in the incoming packet and an internal routing table, the router determines which port (line) to send out the packet (ports typically connect to Ethernet cables). Routers require packets formatted in a routable protocol, the global standard being TCP/IP, or simply "IP."

there are many types of routers but the two most common routers are home and small offices routers. the home router is commonly used for people personal such as at home like it says. and the small offices routers are used in small business buildings. John Greeney ec1402114.
