router networking/roo't*/ A device which forwards packets between networks. The forwarding decision is based on network layer information and routing tables, often constructed by routing protocols.
In a packet-switched data network, what is used to reassemble the packets in the correct order at the destination device?
A router is a networking device that forwards data on a network.
Switches and Bridges
To establish connectivity between two computers, TCP/IP Protocol finds the destination device & then slices information into small chunks called Packets. These packets are wrapped with some information which helps packet sail through number of intermediary devices to the destination. After reaching destination, packets are reassembled into data onto the End device.
