an adsl is different from a router. an adsl connects directly to the net through a phone line. a router is connected to the adsl modem and the router's job is to do the connecting process instead of a computer. this results to constant and automatic internet connectivity for the client computer.
the word router is pronounced as ra-u-ter by the way.

I've always heard and said, row-ter, as in cow, and not rooter as in the description of a songbird's sound.
But you know, the UK folks above, make sense, after all, we say Root 66, most of us, even US folks, que no? So why shouldn't it be a ROOTer, as in roto-ROOTer?

You always follow a route (ponounced root) whenever you travel anywhere and since a router is sorting routes between devices then pronounce it ROOTER - unless you are citizen of the good 'ole US of A when then you might pronounce it rowter!!

Depends on how posh you are but the majority would say "root er". Bit like "castle " or "carsal".
