Have to agree ... Use a decent switch for the Gigabit network and a single connection to the router. A 100Mbps link to the router will not matter - at present as the onward is well under that.
Even when we start to see download rates at 200Mbps + a routers with Gigabit being common, I would still suggest using a separate network switch.
