What is the difference beetween Router and Bridge?

A router is a network device which connects 2 or more networks. The router has one network address in each subnet it's located. By looking up in its own routing table, a router decides where the packets have to go. A client can forward the network packets to the router to reach a client in a other network.

A bridge is a transparent network device in your network. Imagine you have one main router (Internet, WAN, ...) which is attached on your network. If you add a bridge between the router and your network you are able to screen every packet sent or received by your network from the outside, since every packet will pass the bridge.
