Only one ethernet port?

Why does every router at every price range have only one ethernet port?

The shitty router I got from my ISP has 4.

Do I have to get an ethernet switch to have more than 1 port?

that's a modem not a router

you connect a router to the modem

Uh...that's just a modem. They assume you have your own.

That's not a router you mong

because a modem is not a network switch

what is the point of having a separate router and modem and not a device that does both?

All these people saying it's not a router but it actually is.
Sure, it's a modem, but it's also routing packets between networks based on IP address, which makes it Layer 3 and a router.

Cost.

Recommend me an ADSL router modem combo
