Routers and bridges are same in terms of Encapsulation and filtering and Self-learning

Routers allow hosts that aren't practically on the same logical network to be able to communicate with each other, while bridges can only connect networks that are logically the same. 3. Routers operate at the layer 3 (network layer) of the OSI model, while bridges are only at the layer 2 (Data link layer).

Router devices communicate with other routers to decide(select) the best path to transfer the data. With the help of MAC addresses of the devices connected in the network, the bridges listen to the network traffic and then decide the best path to send the data. Router devices are used to connect the LAN and WAN links.

Self-learning is an emerging form of learning that has emerged due to the availability of learning resources online. Self-learning enables you to learn what you want when you want, and how you want. You drive the learning process and this tends to be more effective that instructional learning.

A router stores and forwards data packets—each of which contains a destination and source network address—from one LAN or WAN to another. ... Routers don't have a bridge's ability to learn addresses, so they have to do more data processing than bridges do.
