Can a router be used for WiFi and Netflix, or we need to seperate gagdets.
We will get connected to WiFi through Xplornet and they tell us we will need a router. Since we have no clue what to get and we will want Net Flix eventually, do we need a specific router, or a router and a streaming player like Roku.
The router does just what the name implies: The internet connection goes into the router, and the router then sends the signal to other devices either by ethernet cables or wirelessly. If your router is connected to a computer, you can watch Netflix content on your computer. If you want to watch Netflix on your TV, and you have a newer TV, it may have either ethernet or WiFi connections built in. If you have an older TV, you will need a devise like Roku to get the internet signal to your TV.
