Cisco E3000 for 1000 Mbps

What fiber? Is it using PPPoE? If so, do not get an Asus router. The broadcom chipsets in it are very bad at doing PPPoE WAN to LAN and LAN to WAN. Think 300Mbps or so range. Look for a QCA based router, like a TP-Link and a couple of other guys use QCA SoCs in their routers. They do PPPoE very well.

A lot of, but not all, fiber is PPPoE based. So find out, before you jump on something.

Also, don't expect 1000Mbps or even close. Other than some enterprise routers, rare is the router that can do more than about 900Mbps WAN to LAN or LAN to WAN. With PPPoE it would be more problematic (there is more overhead with PPPoE as you have to break up the packets as well as add an encrypted header to it, which is a lot more math than basic NAT). If PPPoE figure a good QCA chipset based router (figure something made in the last 2-3 years maybe) should be able to do around 700-800Mbps.
