Question 6

Repeater and router precisely do the same thing.

Answer

False

Reason — A repeater is a network device that amplifies and restores signals for long-distance transmission. Whereas a router is a network device that forwards data from one network to another. A router works like a bridge but can handle different protocols. Hence, repeater and router work differently.
