English term or phrase: bridge

Definition from Watch Guard:
A piece of hardware used to connect two local area networks, or segments of a LAN, so that devices on the network can communicate without requiring a router. Bridges can only connect networks running the same protocol.

Example sentence(s):

Create a single network segment using a bridge. In this solution, the separate LAN segments are bridged together to create a single network segment. With a single network segment, neighboring nodes on separate LAN segments send packets directly to each other and bridges forward the packets to the destination node on the appropriate LAN segment. Microsoft Tech Net
A network bridge connects multiple network segments at the data link layer (layer 2) of the OSI model, and the term layer 2 switch is often used interchangeably with bridge. Wikipedia
Extend the functionality of your network with this universal Wi-Fi bridge. The bridge enables a laptop or PC user without built-in wireless capability to connect to a wireless LAN . MacWarehaouse

brygga

Definition from own experience or research:
En brygga används för att koppla ihop olika nätverk, eller segment av samma nätverk.

Example sentence(s):

En brygga fungerar ungefär som en repeater så tillvida att den är en ganska enkel apparat med två anslutningar. Där slutar dock likheten. En brygga används för att koppla ihop olika nätverk, eller segment av samma nätverk. Bryggan släpper bara igenom den trafik som skall till nätet på andra sidan. På så sätt minskas onödig trafik i de båda näten eller segmenten. - Rejås Datakonsult

Explanation:
Det är även en standardterm hos Microsoft.
Bridge-Brygga - Software or hardware that connects two or more networks so that they can communicate, and that operates at the data-link layer (layer 2) of the OSI model.
