Do I need a router in order to get Wi-Fi? Do iPhones need a router?
I'm confused, are routers part of the computer/ iPhone. And if you only have one Wi-Fi network does that mean you have one router?
You do need a router to get Wi-Fi. But you don't need a Wi-Fi for an iphone. It could be connected to the Wi-Fi for better connection but other than that iPhones generally have their own Wi-Fi depending on your phone carriers data. And if you have a Wi-Fi network then yes you have a router.
Yes- you need a router to send out a signal that the phone will pick up.
Some routers are not Wi-Fi.
If your computer is connected to a router by wire, and your iphone will not pick up a Wi-Fi signal, then you may not have a wireless or Wi-Fi router.
One network = 1 router.
A router sits between your modem and your internal computer network. It takes your one public IP address, this one in your case, http://ipchicken.com/ and distributes it among all your devices from computers to iPods to bluray players etc.
Your iPhone works fine without one but you will be using your data. Most phones, including the iPhone tend to favor using Wi-Fi over 4G. So yes, you want a router so that you do not tap into your data while at home.
Get one that is dual band. That is, it does 802.11a.
Get one that has Gigabit ports
Optional but for future proofing
Get one that does IPv6. Some ISP's will let you use that now
Get one that does some flavor of 802.11ac. It tops out at 1.7 Gbps
Yes you need a router but most importantly an internet connection first to connect your router with a modem. But in most of the cases your ISP provides you a wireless model router with your connection. Otherwise you can order separately an Ethernet router if they just provide you a modem.
I have an amazon fire devise which was working and then the wifi stopped so no internet---my computor works fine so what do I do? They always ask for the passcode for an internet provider but where do you find it?
- What's the difference between a cheap router and a good router? Just wanted to know the difference between a cheap router and an expensive router, I know that is a very broad question, I'm just a bit confused on how a router works. Does it increase my Internet speed on multiple devices? I get 50Mb per second, Well at least that's what I pay for. I have a PS3 two iPhones and a tablet, as well as a desktop PC that is wireless. Can anyone recommend an excellent router under $150

- Order shipped to wrong address.i need my sister to pick it up for me? I purchased an iphone7 on ebay and i updated my shipping address because i moved 2.30 hours away, but then something went wrong and i assume when i went to fix it, the old shipping address went back on there without me noticing… Now my expensive parcel is headed to a place it could get stolen. However, my sister lives in my old city and was wondering if i filled out a letter of authorization, that she could go get it for me? I'm super stressed and annoyed as i just need a phone for work.
