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 router, on the other hand, directs the information collected by the modem to devices within that network. The modem brings the information in, and the router distributes (or âroutesâ) it to different devices like computers and phones.
Modems and routers â The basics. If you subscribe to a cable or DSL internet service, your modem will act as a bridge to connect your cable service directly to your computer or your wireless router.

The wireless router basically functions as a connection point to transmit your wired computer network to your wireless network.
