Modem vs. Router. Modems and routers are both involved in connecting your home PCs to the Internet. The modem encodes and decodes data so that it can pass between your home network and your Internet Service Provider (ISP).

The modem brings the information in, and the router distributes (or âroutesâ) it to different devices like computers and phones.
