Why don't you let the router do all the router work, such as Wifi, routing, DHCP, DNS, etc? I have my router RJ45'd to my Bell router, and let it do all that. The Bell router's wifi is rarely used, but is a backup. Connect all your boxes RJ45 to your router if you wish, then they can all play well together, no? Is this too simple a setup?
It might be that the router doesn't do all that's needed and so a Linux box or other might be needed. I run pfSense on a refurb computer. Also, if he's on Rogers, he'll want one that supports IPv6.
