ROUTER
A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks.
Routers perform the traffic directing functions on the Internet. Data sent through the
internet, such as a web page or email, is in the form of data packets. A router is the first
line of security from intrusion into a network. Enabling the highest level of security on
the router turns on things like the firewall, and is the best way to keep your computer
system and information safe from attack. Routers contain software called firmware that
should be updated as released by the router manufacturer. Most routers connect to
other network devices only via network cables and don't require drivers to operate
in Windows or other operating systems. However, routers that connect to a computer
via a USB or FireWire typically require drivers to operate properly. Routers often act as
the DHCP servers in small networks, issuing unique IP addresses.
Most routers are manufactured by companies like Linksys, 3Com, Belkin, D-Link,
Motorola, TRENDnet, and Cisco, but there are many others. Routers connect a modem—
like a fiber, cable, or DSL modem—to other devices to allow communication between
those devices and the internet. Most routers, even wireless routers, usually feature
several network ports to connect numerous devices to the internet simultaneously.
