What is a router?

Answer Posted / allu subash mohan ganesh

A router is an electronic device that interconnects two or
more computer networks, and selectively interchanges
packets of data between them. Each data packet contains
address information that a router can use to determine if
the source and destination are on the same network, or if
the data packet must be transferred from one network to
another
