A router is a device that forwards data packets along
networks.
A router is connected to at least two networks, commonly
two LANs or WANs or a LAN and its ISP's network.
Routers are located at gateways, the places where two or
more networks connect, and are the critical device that
keeps data flowing between networks and keeps the networks
connected to the Internet.
When data is sent between locations on one network or from
one network to a second network the data is always seen and
directed to the correct location by the router. They
accomplish his by using headers and forwarding tables to
determine the best path for forwarding the data packets,
and they use protocols such as ICMP to communicate with
each other and configure the best route between any two
hosts
