Routers separate network segments?

I thought that (sub)network segments were separated by hubs and switches, and that routers separate (sub)networks. Computers on either side of a router will obviously be on a different segment, but they'll be on a different segment in a different (sub)network altogether, so it's misleading (but technically true-ish) to list routers in this article. i.e. Routers are not used to separate segments that are segments of the same (sub)network.

Hubs do not seprate network segment

Using a hub to interconnect devices has the same results as having the network devices on one Ethernet 10BASE2 segment. (CCNA self-study p179 Question No.1)
Two devices or many devices?
In many sentences of this article it is not clear whether "connected devices", etc. refers to exactly two devices or more than one device. The plurality of a word is incapable of making this distinction and I suspect that in some cases one meaning is intended while in other cases the other meaning is intended. It is not exactly clear where this distinction lies. I believe that this is an important distinction to make within the article. -- Sudozero (talk) 23:49, 3 August 2015 (UTC)
- I tried to clarify the article a bit. Hopefully the section I changed is in line with the IEEE standard which is behind a $250+ paywall. The broader definition which equates network segments with subnets remains at the bottom of the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sudozero (talk • contribs) 00:39, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
