The exact process by which wireless routers work is highly intricate and complex. However, simply put, a router is plugged into an internet connection and broadcasts the signal so an internet connection can be accessed by other computers.

What is the difference between access point and wireless bridge?
A wireless Access Point (AP) connects a group of wireless stations to an adjacent wired (Typically, Ethernet) LAN. An AP is like an Ethernet hub - except that a hub relays LAN frames only to other 802.3 stations, whereas an AP relays 802.11 frames to all other 802.11 or 802.3 stations in the same subnet. (In English: "it allows communication between wired and wireless..") A wireless router connects a group of wireless stations to an adjacent wired (Typically, Ethernet) LAN. A wireless router is a wireless AP combined with an Ethernet router. A wireless router forwards IP packets between your wireless subnet and any other subnet. Most routers also have a built-in firewall, and built-in Ethernet ports. (In English: same as an AP, but you can network different subnets or networks (Example: your home network and the Internet [Modem also required typically!] )
Can you run 2 wireless networks in one house?
Yes. However, their role in interconnecting your home network needs to be defined in order to correctly deploy them. Each wireless router has a unique MAC address (Media Access Control) that differentiates it from every other network interface device, so at the network level accidental conflicts are highly unlikely. Additionally, you need to select an SSID (Service Set Identifier) for your wireless router, which further differentiates it from other routers in the house, in the apartment next door, etc. While you can have many wireless routers in any given area (inside your apartment building, or even in your own house), an important point is where each router will be connected to the "upstream" network connection, presumably eventually reaching the Internet. These points should be understood and defined prior to deploying multiple routers in any given location.
How do you put a password on your wireless connection?
To set a password on your wireless network, you must first access your router's administration panel. This can usually be accessed by typing the internal IP address of your router (usually 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1) and entering the default username and password (may vary depending on manufacturer). Once you've entered the administration panel, you need to find a page where you can edit your wireless network's settings. Here you should be able to set your password. Notes: -It's is highly recommended you change the administration panel's password and not leave it as default. -WEP encrypted passwords are easily obtained by the amateur hacker (as there are many tutorials around the internet). Therefore, it is recommended that you use WPA encryption.
What local loop has a connection highly shared by many subscribers?
CATV
Is it legal to use 2 routers?
Using 2 routers is not illegal, but it is kind of pointless. Each Router can support up to 255 connected devices, however the more devices you have on an internet connection, the slower your connection is. Therefore unless you have multiple T1 lines (which is highly doubtful unless you have a large network) running multiple routers is pointless. You would be better off with 1 router and multiple network switches.
