What is a Router and What Does a Router Do? A router is a small device that sits between your modem and computer. Most routers are about the same size and shape as a modem. The purpose of the router is to take the information from the modem and deliver it to your computer. But thatâs not the cool part. What is cool about a router is that itâs able to take this information from several networks and deliver them to several computers.

A router (including a wireless router) is a specialized networking device connected to two or more networks running software that allows the router to move data from one network to another. Router functions in an Internet protocol based network operate at the network layer (OSI Model's layer 3). The primary function of a router is to connect networks together and keep certain kinds of broadcast traffic under control. There are several companies that make routers: Cisco, Linksys, Juniper, Netgear, Nortel (Bay Networks), Redback, Lucent, 3Com, HP, Dlink and Belkin just to name a few.
