What device is necessary for establishing a connection between a home network and the Internet?
Switch
Modem
Repeater
Router
Hub
A modem connects a local network to the Internet by converting digital data from a computer to analog signals for transmission over telephone lines, cable systems, or satellite communications. Routers direct traffic on a network, switches connect devices within a network, hubs are basic networking devices that connect multiple devices, and repeaters regenerate signals to extend the reach of a network. However, only modems convert signals for Internet connectivity.
