Routers & Gateways
What Do Routers Do?
Network routers are the unsung heroes of the Internet. While we spend our days browsing websites, streaming music and videos, and sending emails, network routers work tirelessly behind the scenes to make all that possible.
Wi-Fi Router For Your Needs
While routers are most commonly used to connect devices to the internet, they can also be used for a variety of other purposes. Especially remote or home office workers can significantly increase their work efficiency using a router. Here are some uses for routers that you may not have considered:
Routing traffic efficiently
A router's primary job is to route traffic efficiently between networks. It's like a Smart traffic cop, directing data to its correct destination along the fastest path. Using a combination of static routes and dynamic routing protocols, a router builds a map of the network and knows how to route packets even to remote destinations across the Internet.
Prioritizing important traffic
Routers also prioritize different types of network traffic based on things like latency and bandwidth requirements. For example, they deprioritize less important traffic like web browsing to provide maximum bandwidth for more important traffic like video calls or online gaming. Routers ensure a good experience for time-sensitive or bandwidth-hungry applications by optimizing traffic this way.
Network Segmentation
Routers can be used to divide a network into smaller segments, which can help improve security and performance.
VPN Gateway
Routers can be configured as a VPN gateway, allowing you to connect to your network from outside locations securely.
Load Balancing
Routers can balance network traffic across multiple internet connections, improving performance and reliability.
Parental Controls
Routers can be configured with parental controls to restrict access to certain websites or types of content.
Network Attached Storage
Some routers come with built-in hard drives or support for external hard drives, allowing you to create a network-attached storage (NAS) device.
To conclude, while routers operate quietly behind the scenes, they are instrumental in delivering a fast, stable, and secure network experience. The next time you send an email or stream your favorite show, spare a thought for the hardworking router that makes it all possible.
Our Best Router Brands
Not all routers are created equal - some brands stand out with exceptional range, speed, security, and features.
Cisco is the leader in business and enterprise-grade routers for a reason. Their routers are powerful, reliable, and packed with advanced features like business-class security, detailed control panels, and robust coverage for large spaces.
Netgear routers are for those who demand the fastest speeds and the latest Wi-Fi technologies. The wide range of advanced features like beamforming, VPN support, and free antivirus software makes Netgear a brand you can rely on for serious connectivity.
TP-Link is a more affordable brand, but don't let the lower prices fool you. Their routers punch way above their weight with long range and support for the latest Wi-Fi 6 and mesh networking technologies.
Linksys is one of the oldest and most established router brands that continue to produce innovative products. However, they don't cut back on premium features and frequently collaborate with other companies like Velop for their cutting-edge mesh systems. With Linksys, you get the ideal combination of usability and modern features.
Asus routers are renowned for their sleek, futuristic designs with built-in game acceleration and anti-hacking security features.
Tenda is a brand that proves you don't need to spend a fortune on a capable router. Despite their budget-friendly prices, Tenda routers are well-designed, easy to set up, and offer the latest Wi-Fi technologies like AC1200 dual-band connectivity to handle streaming and browsing with multiple devices at once. If you want an inexpensive yet powerful router, you can't go wrong with a Tenda.
While they may seem like simple devices, routers can do much more than provide internet access. By exploring their uses, you can unlock their full potential and improve your network's security, performance, and functionality.
