I am not supplying internet outside the room -- I just want my PC, my laptop, and my PS3 to be able to use the net without hiccups -- my old linksys BEFSR is only 2.0 compatible. As it stands my PC is connecting directly but I would like to be able to at least do internet radio into the stereo from my laptop which is not something I can really multitask off my PC well (I have been trying but controlling the volumes to be compatible in every program I use is a real pain). Internet radio tends to be really soft and other programs tend to be loud.

I have never heard of a DOCSIS 3.0 "router".
what most people do is purchase a DOCSIS 3.0 Modem (motorola makes a solid unit, model SB6120) then a separate wireless router (my personal preference is linksys)
In the FUTURE, SMC networks has a DOCSIS 3.0 *GATEWAY*, this is basically a wired/wireless router that has a cable WAN interface. Currently though that device is not available retail and there is no date in the future that I can tell you that it will be.
hope this helps.
EDIT: ok so I looked up your old model and yeah I see what you have there but the only comparable product thats 3.0 compatible is that SMC

I poked around on the reputable sites like newegg and amazon but didnt find them listed, however somebody says they have 10 they are selling on ebay... I would be leery of course

turned my cynical penis into a happy vagina
Then after an Oatmeal Cranberry and Double Chocolate,
it made my new vagina spontaneously sing the Trolololo Song in an elevator.

um pretty much all routers are wireless now with just 4 wired ports, unless you get a commercial router with a blade worth of switching ports.
and I think 3.0 is the only format being built anymore.

Just get yourself a router (wired or wireless). If it's wireless, disable it within the config panel. Most will offer you a way to do that.
From there, just connect the router to the modem via the uplink port. Then just run your Cat 5/6 wires to the devices in question.

Lets rephrase then -- what is a decent router that I could get that would work without having the difficulties I had with the old 2.0 modem. IE reliably. I don't want the wireless on because I can feel wireless. It is like a palpable change and after an hour or so I get a headache. Hence I definitely require it to not transmit wirelessly (in essence that feature would be always off -- and I wouldnt want it transmitting even though the thing is hooked up with wires).

Docsis 3.0 on Cisco gear introduced higher data rates, ie. it's faster.

I dont think they make a "non-wireless" routers anymore.
You would have to disable it in the settings.
