Gigabit switching

Hi i have recently recieved a new wireless router from sky (uk) but it only has 4 ether net ports and one is used for dsl connection so my question is what is the best way to get more ethernet ports ideally 6 and with gigabit through put because the sky router is only 100Mb/s.

Could i get some kind of gigabit switch and plug that into the dsl modem and then plug my sky wireless router into that so that all ethernets into switch will be gigabit and the i can use the sky router just for wireless.

Or is it best just to get a new wireless router with gigabit and dual band wireless. But what number of ethernet ports can u get these with.

Thanks

Is it best to connect switch to router and router to modem then as you say traffic to outside world and any wireless devices is limited to 100Mb/s connection to router.
Or connect router to switch and switch to modem.

I cant see that it makes much difference myself as in the first instance my internet speed is 40Mb/s and the connection between router and switch would be 100Mb/s but in reality runs at about 56Mb/s so still faster than internet with some head room for data transfers/streams wirelessly between say ipad and apple tv connected to switch.

Or in the second instance if router was connected to switch and switch to modem the only traffic between router and switch would be wireless connections so plenty of bandwidth for that and everything else connected to the switch gets direct access to the internet and each other.

That is if you can connect up both ways.
The second option sounds best to me.

Sorry if this sounds confusing, well it does to me but i think ive made it clear.

Thanks
