How to Gain Access to Wi-Fi Router Settings?
A Wi-Fi Router is a networking device that directs data traffic to various connected networks using a unique IP address. A wired router just connects directly to a device (computer) via cable. It is usually connected to an external internet service provider via a Cat4(Category 4 cable), fiber optic cable, or a telephone line.
