“How does a router work in terms of WiFi is the WiFi the router box I’m confused”

• Hi Rayray. Simply put, the major difference is the router is a physical device and the WiFi is just the radio signal pattern used by the router. Technically, a router is your in-home gateway to the internet. WiFi is a data transmission technology using the 2.4 GHz or 5GHz radio wave frequencies for the transmission (or also receiving data).

  I would recommend:
