Router

A device that finds the best 

path

 for 

a

 data 

packet

 to be sent from one 

network

 to another.

A

 router stores 

and

 forwards electronic messages between 

network

, first determining all possible 

path

 to the 

destination

 address 

and

 then picking the most expedient route, based on the 

traffic

 load 

and

 the number of 

hop

.

A

 router works 

at

 the 

network

 layer (layer 3 of the 

OSI

 model); 

a

 bridge works 

at

 the 

data

 link layer (layer 2).

A

 router does more processing than 

a

 bridge does.
