Are wireless routers capable of tracking what a portable device does while using it..?

Sorry if my question didn’t make sense I was just trying to make it as short as possible.

I have an iPod Touch and a Wii that uses the wifi in my house. When I was figuring out how to set up the wirless router I noticed on the router login page that it tells you what devices are using the wifi, (I don’t think it actually said "Ipod Touch" and "Wii", it just said those devices MAC addresses).

But my question is, does the router track what the device does with your Wifi? I mean like what websites you go on (Safari on iPod Touch and Opera on Wii)?

And no I’m not trying to get away with looking at dirty things on my iPod and Wii I just want to have some privacy. It would be stupid if you can put a password on your iPod so no one can get your personal info on there, but someone could get your info anyway just by using the wireless router .

It’s a netgear by the way.
We don’t have a password set.
I checked the router website again. And there’s a section called "Logs". The description of it says, "A log is a detailed record of the Web sites that users on your network have accessed or attempted to access"

So does that mean it WILL log what I do on my iPod? That’s what it sounds like. Or will it only log what I do on my actual computer?
Okay well I found my answer. It logs EVERYTHING I do on my iPod. It logs each website I go on and even my APPS (Music app, Aim app). That’s ridiculous. Is there a way I can make it not log all that?
