How Does a Router Work?
Typically, a router connects to the modem's "Internet" or "WAN" port over a network connection,
then connects to other network devices over another network cable.
To receive data packages from servers, each router has a different (external) IP address, and every
device on the user network receives a distinct (MAC) address. The router keeps a database to
record which device requested information from where whenever you attempt to access
information online.
