You cant if the WiFi router uses a cellular network for the internet connection. There is many that is designed just for that with builtin batteries.
If it is a router that has the internet connection by Cable TV, ADSL, Ethernet, or any other wire then taking it with you would not give you internet access. You still could if you have a way to power it but then you can only talk to the router and other devices connected to it so less useful.
If you took a piece of paper around with you without a pencil, your thoughts won’t magically appear on the page.
A wifi router (paper) is a tool to give you access to the internet. Without a connection (pencil) to the internet (your brain), it’s not going to do anything.
This is a horrible analogy because you still need a device to connect to the router to use the internet. But you’re five so you’ll just have to roll with it.
No. Your wifi is connected to a physical copper or fiber optic line that goes from your house to your Internet Service Providers network. Without this connection it does not have any Internet and can not provide Internet services to other devices. There are devices commonly called hotspots which have a wifi router and a cell phone connection. These will use the cell phone network to get Internet that they can then provide to connected devices. Because you need a cell phone data plan this is most commonly used for laptops or other devices that does not have cell phone hardware. And in fact most cell phones can be configured as hotspots using their data plan to provide Internet to other connected devices. But using a hotspot will not provide you with any of the benefits of a dedicated copper or fiber line to your home such as reduced cost, higher bandwidth and increased reliability.
