Re: 100Mb Hub/Switch
The Switch side of the router will be 100MBit you'll find, the 54MBit is the Wireless part.

Re: 100Mb Hub/Switch
That is correct, as long as the WAN side of your router is capable of at least 50MBit FulDup

Re: 100Mb Hub/Switch
And I wouldn't recommend buying a Hub, always look for a switch when using high bandwidths.
