Well i've seen a few stories of people turning old PCs into routers and changing the firmware/OS on an existing router. So i got to thinking - what's inside a router? Because it seems to me to be a specialised sort of computer. I found this image but it doesn't say much... i can see the main 'controller chip', a flash memory chip and some LAN controllers but that's about it.
And while i'm at it what exactly is a 'desktop switch'? Cheers
