Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Routers are specifically designed to connect networks with different addressing schemes, packet sizes, and interfaces. They can analyze packet headers and determine the most efficient path for forwarding them to their destination. Hubs simply forward all incoming packets to all connected devices, switches connect devices on the same network segment, and repeaters amplify and regenerate signal to extend the range of a network.
