RouterRole
The router has two main functions, one connecting different networks and the other choosing a route for the transmission of information. The selection of an open and fast shortcut will significantly increase the speed of communication, reduce the network system's communication load, save resources for the network system and improve the network system's accessibility, thereby making it more efficient。
Router focused on functionality
Of course, the above-mentioned is only the main function of the router, but also the basic function, which is sufficient for most applications, such as those that require internet access. However, special needs, such as the need for short-term use and the inability to use mobile phones to share wireless networks, may require the use of special applications such as 4g networks for the transfer of cable networks。
Normal home router
Home router brands and models are very numerous, and their functions are uneven, but they are network- and route-related functions, such as automatic configuration, speed limit, remote management, etc., and are no longer listed here。
With usb router
There are relatively few usb routers, which are mainly located for users who wish to save costs and are able to use the media server function, i. E. Routers can serve both as gateways to family networks and as home-based media servers, although the cost of such routers is higher than normal routers, since hardware such as routers are required to be upgraded on a common router basis。
4g networkWireless/wireless network
The 4g wireless network router is also a router for specific scenarios, mainly addressing the issue of universal routers' offline access, both in a wireless way, integrating the network operator's wireless access function into the router, but because the offline is wireless, the stability of the router and the rate of access are significant environmental impacts, and the cost is relatively low relative to the normal router. Here's a 4g router。
For internet access devices that can connect to the wifi network, access needs can be met through cell phone-opened hotspot sharing, so that, if the requirements for network quality, network management, etc. Are not high, wireless web cards can also be installed in the facility, and hotspots connected to mobile phones can be used to share hotspots。
Enterprise-level secure routers
The main features of enterprise-level routers are better network traffic control and management, as well as more supported access equipment and more stable operations, which are better than common routers。
Software router
Software routers are primarily not too demanding for network performance and stability to replace advanced network management and network hardware equipment, such as enterprise routers and network firewalls, which can be operated on common cpus, all network management functions can be performed through software, and hardware can only achieve two or more gateways (including wireless access). Since the gateway function is achieved through software, it is much less efficient than hardware routers. Software router systems such as ros, openwrt, ikuai, or even better hardware performance can be achieved directly using systems such as ubuntu, centos. Software routers also have a very large amount of hardware, and even others have been using raspberries as routers and media servers。
Summary
These are the current popular routers, the introduction of more routers and the relevant knowledge of soft route routes, the choice of family, villas, business routers, the network structure, etc., which will be updated at a later stage and, if interested, will allow attention to this account number。
