8 port gigabit wireless broadband router

[pmeswani]

What with the growth of tech in the house, i.e. NAS, CCTV, Wired wifi AP elsewhere in the house, I have run out of ports on my main router.

Am looking to replace it with an 8-port gigabit router with wifi.

Have seen a couple with front facing ports and power in the rear, would prefer pretty lights on the front and all i/o on the back.

Any recommendations on this?

Is getting an 8 port switch / hub be out of the question? Could work out cheaper than buying a new router. Also, you can uplink the switch to your router giving you an effective / usable 10 ports.
