Good Gigabit Router !

Since I'm a cisco centric person, I'm going to say Cisco.

There's little point in having GbE ports on a router when it's used as a router -- it's not as if your going to be limited by 100 Mb/s when communicating to the Internet. So in practice, when using a GbE switch in conjunction with the router, any router that does its own job well will do, whether or not it has GbE ports.

(One exception here would be the so-called faster than 100 Mb/s wireless routers / APs. If they're really that fast, they ought to all have GbE ports -- so that you don't lose the supposed speed gains above 100 Mb/s by going through normal 100 Mb/s Ethernet.

Another exception would of course be when the router is used as a switch as well.)

Most routers with GbE switches included also don't support jumbo frames and a number of other possible switch features, so you're generally better off going with separates -- for more flexibility in feature selection in router and switch, greater selection of devices, and better pricing.

Some people say the fan on the SR2016 is noisy -- this could be a problem in an office/home envioronment. Otherwise it looks OK.

The Dell 2716 is sometimes recommended -- it's fanless. It's probably the cheapest 16-port web-managed switch, which makes it something of a deal, having features not normally seen at its price point. But there are some reports of initial failures. I haven't tried one yet. And if you don't need the features...

Performance should be fine on most switches.

I'm really not sure what I'd pick.
