    Concerning Routers And Hub?
    I am doing an assignment work on Router & Hub for my studies:eek:.. Too be honest I have very little idea what these are:( and I am pretty much confused about both topics:confused:... answer the following as precisely as possible so that I have a clear idea. And then be able to search more on these topics by myself... So here are the questions:

    * What are Router and Hub ?
    * Why are Router and Hub used ?
    * What's the function of Router and Hub ?
    * How do Router and Hub work ?
    * What's the advantage and disadvantage of both ?

    Reply ASAP!

    Thanks...

    You are doing this backwards. The answers you seek can be easily found with a little bit of research. What you are asking is that we do your research for you and that's not how this site works. If you need further clarifications, show us that you did your own work and we will try to help further.

    I agree with the two gentlemen above me. Can I ask why you're doing an assignment on something that you have no interest in? Was it issued or picked.
