I dont want second router in bed room beside it

 

It's not a router it's a switch it's basically a splitter for ethernet cables in the most basic terms if you want more than one device connected to a single ethernet line you have coming in.

yes a switch will let you do that the limiting factor is the throughput of that single ethernet cable coming in to feed all those devices using it at the same time.

I have 4 pcs on a switch. Then I have 2 routers on the switch. The line in comes in from the modem/router.

 Just because you don't care, doesn't mean other others don't. Don't be a self-centered asshole. -Thank You a PSA from the people who do not say random shit on the internet.

But do have to get specific cables switch? For diff mbs? Like i got ps3 laptop and getting gaming rig

 

It just depends on the cable you have incoming and the hardware as long as everything in your network to that room is gigabit throughput (1000mb/s) and if you want to maximize that throughput to your devices a gigabit 5 or 8 port switch will work well for that.

Basically if you have gigabit ethernet connection coming into the room and want the best connections a 10/100/1000mb/s switch will provide the max throughput.

No 5-in-1 cables. You can use a Y splitter (and by a I mean 4), but this will decrease speeds to ~100mbps. Still uses more then 1 cable however.

 

Switch would be best...

Well how do gigabit internet like my internet speeds are 25down 5up ms is different evry time almost

 

It's not the speed of your internet that dictates the throughput capacity, the throughput is just the amount of data that can transfer through at once simple idea is pipe size. 

Mainly a gigabit connection will never be saturated to full capacity in most situations.

 

Something like this will fit your needs and then some:
