What is a Router?

Accepted Answer

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks.

Routers operate at the network layer (Layer 3) of the OSI model.
They use routing tables to determine the best path for data packets to reach their destination.
Routers can connect multiple networks together, such as LANs and WANs.
They provide network address translation (NAT) to allow multiple devices to share a single public IP address.
Examples of routers include Cisco routers, Juniper routers, and home Wi-Fi routers.
