A router forms part of an internet network by allowing all the devices in a building to connect to the internet. A modem brings the internet service from your provider into your home or office. This data is then sent to a router which forwards the internet connection to all your WiFi devices such as laptops and smartphones. This internet connection consists of data packets such as e-mails or web pages which contain an IP network address telling the router the end destination of the data.

Routers in homes and small offices simply forward IP packets between home computers and the internet. Large businesses, on the other hand, require more powerful and complex enterprise routers designed to send data over larger geographical areas called WANs (Wide Area Network) so data packets may need to be passed between several routers until it reaches its final IP destination.

### How to Choose a WiFi Router

If you are in the process of selecting a WiFi router, it is crucial to consider the following:

### 1. Coverage Area

When picking out a router, it's important to take into account the size of your living or working space. Make sure you choose a router that offers adequate coverage for the size of your area so you can enjoy optimal WiFi performance throughout.

### 2. Internet Speed

You also want to check that the wired or wireless router you choose is capable of handling the speed of your internet service - whether 3G, 4G or 5G. If not, it could lead to slowdowns or even connectivity issues down the line.

### 3. Number of Devices

Before buying a router, think about how many different devices you plan on connecting to it in order to ensure it can handle that amount of traffic without issue.

### 4. Security Features

Your choice of WiFi router should also come equipped with security features, only allowing devices with the correct authorisation to enter the network using a key or password. Different routers offer different levels of encryption, the two main types being Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) and WiFi Protected Access (WPA).

**5. Price**

It's also essential to consider your budget when deciding on a WiFi router; decide on a budget and look for a model that offers all the features you need within that price range. To enjoy WiFi access and enable multiple device connections, both a modem and a router are necessary.

However, besides purchasing separate modem and router equipment, you can also consider modem routers that fulfil the functions of both a modem and router in a single device.

**Order WiFi Routers and Modem Routers**
