I just tell you I become always confused about all devices. Now I can distinguish them all. This is really helpful and very simple language and understandable doc.

Would you mind drawing this out visually? It doesn't have to be pretty... hand drawn on a piece of paper and scanned or just draw boxes / lines in like Paint or whatever would be so helpful. I'm really having a hard time visualizing your setup to see the benefits of a bridge over a switch. Thank you for taking the time to explain all this stuff. Would you mind drawing this out visually?

I did this for a while with my media center computer to bridge its wired and wireless connections so that a couple other devices could also connect via wireless. A little hinky, but it did what it needed to do. But bridges can be hardware too. I'm using an <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Apple-AirPort-Express-Tunes-M9470LL/dp/B0002GDIII/" rel="nofollow">Apple Airport Express</a> under my desk to connect two sections of wired networks together. DHCP server is on one side and both sides have a switch connecting multiple ethernet devices together. One switch connects to the Airport Express which gives that entire side access to the wireless connection.

Bridges too can have mutiple ports. Am I wrong? Bridges are software based, whereas switches are hardware based. Bridges too can have mutiple ports. Am I wrong?
