Can anyone recommend me a wifi router/LAN splitter, with LAN ports that can hit 1.5Gbps?

So, I just got a new apartment, and I was able to get a new ISP that offered 1.5Gbps, so I upgraded my package to 1.5Gbps. However, for some dumb reason my Asus RT-N66U routers can only hit 800mbps over LAN (I have read it's a problem with them), so I'm looking to upgrade. What is the new hot wifi router/LAN splitter that can hit 1.5Gbps over LAN? What are you guys using?
I have already upgraded my NICs and ran Cat6, the new router is the last step in my new network.
 
Well any consumer firewall these days might get you 1Gb, but not higher. You'd need a 10Gb or Multi-Gig interface to go above that. I've never seen an ISP offer that before.
 
Sounds like a perfect time to build your own pfsense box with dual 10gbe ports (supermicro makes some good boards in mitx format / 1u rack size).
