Fastest LAN (wired) Router...don't care about WiFi.

^ You are getting only 10 MBps as you are using a fast-ethernet switch. Just by getting the TPLink gigabit switch your transfer rates will improve.

Which modem are you using now?

 

[Infected]

Its the Router/Modem ASUS DSL-N10E

How is the Cisco Linksys WAG120N as a modem and router and I will add a cisco gigabit switch to it?

What issues are you facing with your current modem other than the LAN transfer speeds? If your only issue is with the local transfer speeds, why do you want to change the modem/router? You could simply add a gigabit switch and connect all local devices and the router/modem to this switch.

Yeah I could just add a switch...
How is the CISCO SE2800 its 8 port gigabit.

Remember that to get 1gbps connectivity you need a cat6 cable too, cat5 can only give burst speeds up to 1gig

cat5e fully supports 1gbps lan.also don't forget that you won't be able to hit anywhere near 1gbps using conventional hdd's.take a look here to get an idea about max speeds across a 1gbps lan:

I have already ordered 8 cat6 cables.

 

[guest_999]

no problem then.cat6 cables have advantage of better noise & crosstalk management.btw what was the price & from where you ordered.

 

[Infected]

Imported for about 5$ each for about 10 feet....bit expensive but I got all 8 different colors so its easy to identify, as I have now gotten about 6-7 devices to connect.....

Also instead of the TP-luink I have changed my order to this: Cisco Linksys Se2800-Ap, 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch

 

[guest_999]

looks good.are you importing from abroad($ price) using some shop-n-ship service or directly?

No, I don't use any service like that, I have my own US mailing address as well......

 

[guest_999]

ok!i assumed you are presently in India & getting hardware from USA.in terms of indian rupees cat6 cables are much more costlier than cat5e cables.

After everything I have narrowed down to the:
WD My Net N900 HD Dual-Band Router: 7x Gigabit Ports, 450 + 450 Mbps, 2x USB Ports, Dual-Band, 2.4/5 GHz, FasTrack Plus WDBWVK0000NSL-HESN

I read that thanks its nice and helpful...I did read a few reviews and "700+ Mbps wired routing speeds and Ubicom-based automatic Qos. " Seems plenty for me..
Thank you for the help all along...
