A bridge router is also called a brouter. It's a network device that is used as both a bridge and a router. The brouter routes all the packets for the protocols that are known and just sends them on as all other packets just like a bridge would. Brouters are operable at the network layer and the data link layer. Networks continue to become more complex, and brouters help solve the problem. It acts as a bridge when there is a network involved, and it acts as a router in a situation where there is an internetwork. These are combination devices.

Creating A Wireless Router Bridge?

A wireless router bridge is a way to use an old or unneeded wireless router to extend the usable range of a central Internet access point. This can be done by connecting an older router to a functioning router and then either changing the wireless mode of the router to bridge, or by changing the firmware inside of the router so it can support bridging. The end result is a wireless router that will pick up the signal from an access point and provide Internet access to any computer that uses the wireless router bridge.
