| A Google search: Gigabit Ethernet broadband router yielded D-Link DLG-4100. However I'm not aware of any combined with a DSL modem.
Is space at a premium? My preference it to keep modem, router, and switch as separate devices for flexibility. I've had two DSL providers each requiring different modem and my LAN started out with a 10 Mbps Ethernet hub and has subsequently been upgraded.
I advise getting a Gig Ethernet switch with as many ports as needed and connect it to a garden variety broadband router.

| I found a NETGEAR Gigabit Router as well, but it did not come with a modem.
It saves space & it is more flexible actually, most of the ADSL all-in-one routers I bought supported almost every protocol, I can connect & change setting on different ISP's. International version have more support on them. I bought a modem from the US & when I traveled back home I got stuck with it.
I really need the Gigabit Router for my Gigabit shared storage, it is kind of slow to connect with 100mbps & only get 7-8MB/s transferring a 7 gb file! |

I assume you are looking for one with a built-in switch?
If not, why would you need to route gigabit on DSL? |

I think what he is looking to do is have the modem and router in one box. The gigabit will allow the computers on the LAN fast connection. I don't know of any modem/router combos that support gigabit ethernet (which is not to say they don't exist) so he may have to just settle with two separate boxes.
