These are two i am looking at

(1) http://www.computeralliance.com.au/asus-dsl-n55u-adsl2-modem/gigabit-router/dual-band-wireless-n-with-3g-support

(2) http://www.computeralliance.com.au/netgear-d6100-adsl2-modem/gigabit-router/dual-band-wireless-ac1200-save-$20

or if you think there is a better one from this store please say ( http://www.computeralliance.com.au/modems )

Im looking for something with Gigabit LAN Ethernet and any added benefits towards game streaming would be great.

I'd stick with Netgear. See if there is any modern router from them for the same price with higher speeds.

I am using a crappy Netgear ISP modem/router atm only able to do 100MB LAN speed and want faster LAN speeds and stuff so though of buying a new cheapish router and couple Cat6 cables

this is probably one of the best one on there

unfortuantly you can't flash it with any 3rd party firmware
